REATRDS BEWARE - YOU WONT BE ABLE TO READ ANY OF THESE BOOKS! -
I recommend if someone is looking for a book that will have a lasting impression on them....
BELOVED - This book was made into a movie starring Oprah, and Danny Glover and is actually very, VERY good. If you are at all interested in the effect slavery had on the black mind and the lengths people would go to survive, this book will do it for you.
ULLEYSES - A supposed masterpiece by James Joyce. If you have no interest in READING, dont even bother with this book. Free form, stream of thought at its best.
HOUSE OF LEAVES - Frightening as all hell. And not "stephen king beat you over the head with boogie me" scary, but very situational fright.
Anything by ALEXANDER BURGESS ( A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, THE WANTING SEED (yes, THAT seed) ) -
Lots of classical.
East of Eden (which I will remake someday as a movie) -
McTeague -
MacBeth -
