>Dosto: Memoirs from the house of the dead
>Tolstoy: Anna Karenina
>Tolstoy: War and Peace
>Turgenev: Fathers and Sons
>Kerouac: On the Road
>Houllebecq: Submission

have a comfy picture for your troubles.

Oh and I also forgot:
>Corncobs "Tortillas" YeCarthy: No Country for Old Memes

Houllebecq, mostly because he's on my backlog too

what's on my desk:
> Calvino; Hermit in Paris
> Nabokov; King, Queen, Knave
> Nabokov; The Luzhin Defense
> Lukacs; The Future of History

Read The Luzhin Defense, it's my second favorite Russian novel of Nabokov's

seconding Luzhin defense.

>Confederacy of Dunces
>The Magic Mountain
>Blood Meridian

I've been trying to decide which to start first for a while.

Blood Meridian is great.

Pic related, but I want some Cioran as well.

Any recs?

>Finnegans Wake
>Bottom's Dream
>Life a User's Manual
>The Changing Light at Sandover

Admittedly the first two are ones I merely dip into, a few pages every day. Nice to be able to read around them as well, not put them on some pedestal.
