Top Ten Lists

[Jay Herzog]

	The fact that I've read so few of these ancient and imposing
monuments of Western Culture leaves me with a massive inferiority complex
too (save me a place in the cave), but here are my ten tomes in high
rotation :
	1.A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole
	2.Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut
	3.Deathbird Stories by Harlan Ellison
	4.Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie
	5.Libra by Don Delillo
	6.The Man In the High Castle by Philip K. Dick
	7.Labyrinths By Jorge Luis Borges
	8.Crystal Express By Bruce Sterling
	9.Tyger!Tyger!(The Stars my Destination) by Alfred Bester
	10.Gravity's Rainbow by The(lately not so) Invisible Man

	What can I say, I'm a 20th Century kind of Guy....
