Success: A Search for Values ~ by Audrey Roth, 1969, textbook, xx + 427 pages

This volume contains works from many media.  Several eras and cultures are represented.  There are examples of fiction, of prose and poetry — and of pictures.  The book examines the many aspects of success, in order to help individuals in their search for meaning and attitude toward that single thing.

With this book, I choose NOT to read from start to finish, but to dip into it whenever and wherever I like.  Not every book should be read from cover to cover, and this one is a textbook with work to do for class.  I have had it since June of 1977 (when I lived on a mountain top in Tennessee), and it's just been sitting there waiting for me to read it.  I flipped it open and read one short piece while writing this and enjoyed it immensely.
