'Seven Pillars of Wisdom' is probably the first book in a long time that reminded me why I used to enjoy reading. It's so intimate, so weird, so controversial, so cruel, and yet so honest.
It's the author's try at psychoanalyzing himself which often fails or conceals details, and quite surprisingly there is nothing about love which is at last a fresh look at one's priorities. It's quite obvious how his direction of thought is never about affections, but about subordination to and of others while being so shy and educated. This was quite a read, and T.E. Lawrence seems one of the most interesting people I've read about
To be honest the book has strong #AndOne's 'Men in Uniform' vibes
