1) Have you ever wept because of a book? Yes.

2) Have you ever nearly wept at a book? Yes.

3) If you answered "Yes" to 1 or 2, which book was it? Well, some of them were when I was a little kid:
Charlotte's Web
The Velveteen Rabbit

And a few more when I was already an adult (usually, they're in the "nearly" category, though), though all of them are Russian literature:
Turgenev - Otsy i Deti (it's so sad when Bazarov dies)
Pasternak - Dr. Zhivago (it's just sad all around)
Vasil'ev - Zavtra Byla Voina (real downer)
Sholokhov - Tikhi Don (it's SOOO sad)

4) Isn't Flowers for Algernon so, so sad? Didn't read it. I thought it was about supporting the floral industry

Oh, I don't have time for this. I have to go and buy a single piece of fruit with a coupon and then return it, making people wait behind me while I complain. - Prof. Farnsworth
