I'm sure I'm forgetting a few. _________________ I love all music. It makes you feel like living. Silence is death.
I've been meaning to read Infinite Jest, I guess I will have to now once I am done with God Is Not Great by Christopher Hitchens.
Just as a side note, since this is a music forum, do any of you listen to music while reading. Myself, I can't not, and I usually end up associating a certain artist with a certain book, to the point where I could not read any Dan Brown novel for example without listening to Californication.
I haven't read fiction in years but that seems to be what this thread is interested in.
One of my favorite fiction titles is Bernard Malamud's 1966 novel The Fixer. It is about an unjustly imprisoned Jew in Tsarist Russia (inspired by the true story of Menahem Mendel Beilis). The book won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the National Book Award in 1967. The book was adapted into the movie The Fixer (1968) starring Alan Bates. _________________ Top 100 Greatest Music Albums by RFNAPLES Bubbling Under The Top 100 Greatest Music Albums, Part 1 by RFNAPLES
