1 - The Recognitions - Gaddis
2 - Ulysses - Joyce
3 - ADA - Nabokov
4 - Tristram Shandy - Sterne
5 - Wittgenstein's Mistress - Markson
6 - Women and Men - McElroy
7 - One Hundred Years of Solitude - Garcia Marquez
8 - If on a winter's night a traveler - Calvino
9 - Darconville's Cat - Theroux
10 - JR - Gaddis
If I include Pynchon, GR goes in at #2. Mason & Dixon probably hits at 9 or
10.
Every list like this begets so many questions, and this list is such of the
moment, ask me tomorrow and it all might shift a bit.
Peace
Mark
Every man seeks peace by waging war, but no man seeks war by making peace
-- St Augustine
Our enemies' opinion of us comes closer to the truth than our own -- La
Rochefoucauld
How good bad music and bad reasons sound when we march against an enemy --
Nietzsche
