read underworld by don delillo
the imperfectionists by tom rachman is a great somewhat recent book |
Rail
11.11.12 | Woohoo, a Craig Thompson fan. Have you read Habibi yet? If not, get on that.
And if you like Fitzgerald, you should read Edith Wharton and Richard Yates. Though I suspect you probably already have. |

iSkane
11.11.12 | The Road's fucked up. I love Cormac McCarthy. But the Road is easily one of the most depressing books I've read. |
YoYoMancuso
11.11.12 | Yeah great writer, his words really stay with you. I've read 10 and some of the things this guy comes up with are amazing. I'm about halfway through The Road right now and I'm worried the father's gonna die. |

halloway
11.11.12 | Kafka's The Trial is great, definitely second that.
McCarthy's Blood Meridian is also stellar, almost like a western version of The Road. |
Uranium
11.11.12 | the road was lame. what's with the hype? i imagine because the words are simple and the print is big. |
