Level 2 Re-Re

I'M AWESOME APPRECIATE ME PLZ

More suggestions, because I jerk off to books:

Shadow Box by George Plimpton. It’s starts off with Plimpton wanting to experience boxing first hand, then goes into a brief history of the sport, then it becomes focused on Plimpton and Muhammad Ali. It makes a lot of other weird detours, at one point George asks other writers about dreams they’ve had. Terry Southern’s involved getting blown by a girl with ice cubes in her mouth.

Post Office or Ham on Rye by Charles Bukowski- Semi-autbiographical, these books are about Hank Chinaski’s ****ty life which he spends most of getting plastered, betting on horses, and ****ing women. His other books are good too and his poetry is hilarious.

I have Fun Everywhere I Go by Mike Edison- Autobiographical. This dude worked at a wrestling magazine, wrote porn books, High Times and was in a punk band that toured Europe. Fun read, kind of self-glorifying.

Catch 22 by Joseph Heller- The be all, end all novel about the absurdity of war.

Everything is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer- Hard to describe. Uses just about every literary gimmick ever.

The World According to Garp by John Irving- Long, but Irving uses the length to build very real characters. It begins with an army nurse raping a catatonic soldier so she can become pregnant.

American Gods by Neil Gaiman- One of the best books ever. Mythology in the modern world.

Just a Couple of Days by Tony Vigoritto- A scientist is asked to help make a chemical weapon that makes people incapable of recognizing symbols. Remember: just about everything is a symbol.

Reading fever…CATCH IT!
