Isadora

Many have asked, so here is what I suggest reading this winter:

A Canticle for Leibewitz (by Walter Miller Jr.)--by far the most important novel written post 1950. Nuclear winter, monks worshipping remnants uncovered from a fallout shelter, the impending age of non-enlightenment, and also brilliant writing.

My Life (by Isadora Duncan)

The Philosophy of Andy Warhol from A to B

The Iron Council ( by China Mieville )

Stiff ( by Mary Roach )

P***y, King of the Pirates (by Kathy Acker)

sorry I don't have many mainstream lit picks, as I haven't really found a good literature book in quite a while. I read Cormac McCarthy's The Road and thought it was complete s**t. I tend to balance genre fiction with non-fiction to make the perfect literature book in my brain. I do always suggest reading Henry Miller if you haven't already. In particular, the Rosy Crucifiction series Sexus, Plexus, and Nextsus. I am probably spelling those wrong.
