One of my favourite books is The Road by Cormac McCarthy. Three reads and counting...
A friend of mine recently became a father and says that he reread the book and saw it in a completely different light as a result of having a son of his own.
Books don't change over time, but I'm pretty sure that your life situation and experiences can to the extent that a book becomes open to a new interpretation.
I read this once and didn't stop until I finished it about 5-6 hours later. At the time my son was similar age to the boy and I found it deeply affecting. I regard it as a one of the finest books I have ever read, yet cannot imagine reading it again as I can't imagine having the same emotional experience.
