Unfortunately I've not read any of Kerouac's stuff. Been meaning to pick up a copy of 'On the Road' for quite a while now. I'll keep my eyes open for a copy of Dr. Sax as well.

I'm actually just finishing up Naked Lunch. Probably the most intense novel I've ever read. Are all Burrough's books written in that style?

Just finished Elmer Rice's The Adding Machine, now I'm tearing through Street Scene.

Surprised I didn't come across this guy earlier...fantastic playwright.

His others are much more narrative and I don't like them half as much.

Read F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Curious Case of Benjamin Button yesterday. Great story...movie mangled it though.

Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus - Mary Shelley
