certainly my favorite book but not sure the best ever written.

I think parameters have to be given, as this is too broad of a question.

James Joyce Ulysses is consensus best novel ever written by "critics" but frick that, it is unreadable.

Lonesime Dove would get my vote. I've probably read it 3 times.

That's for goddamn sure.

Maybe not the greatest novel ever but an amazing read.

Also enjoy of human bondage and I'm a sucker for a farewell to arms
