I'm going to be on hiatus for a while

Mar 04, 2009 00:08

I need book suggestions.  I'm going to be taking a break from the world wide web and information for prolly a week to reboot and think through a few philosophical writings I'm working on.  This includes listening to music instead of talk radio.  There's another reason too, but that's top secret.

So, varied friends of mine, recommend a book or two you think I should read.  Feel free to say why it seems to be a good fit.

About my reading habits:
Almost everything I read is non-fiction.  I end up reading theory and true crime and biographies of people that escaped the gulags.  Any fiction I read is either by Chuck Palahniuk or Bret Easton Ellis, or is realistic in the treatment of its subject, like historical fiction "Johnathan Strange and Mr. Norrel."  I want something fun.  I hate Mark Twain and Tennessee Williams and the Victorian era novels.

Please help!
