I read Flowers for Algernon recently, and I *cough* shed a few tears. This lead me to wonder if anyone else did so, over any book. This includes fiction and nonfiction, so I figured that it belonged here.

1) Have you ever wept because of a book?

2) Have you ever nearly wept at a book?

3) If you answered "Yes" to 1 or 2, which book was it?

4) Isn't Flowers for Algernon so, so sad?
