Cool titles for some hot summer reading

[Michael Bailey]

If this is the canonical summer reading thread, let me interject a
whiff of nostalgia:

the canon (as represented on my parents' bookshelf in the 60s)

Franny and Zooey
Catcher in the Rye
Collected Mark Twain
Collected Sherlock Holmes
Relativity for the Million
Outline of History by H.G. Wells
Rabbit, Run (Updike)
Manchild in the Promised Land by Claude Brown
Autobiography of Ben Franklin
Brave New World
1984
The Spy Who Came in from the Cold
Dangling Man (Saul Bellow)

We also had a set of Shakespeare that nobody ever opened.  Loved those
other ones, though!
The bookshelf was in the den, and that room had a window AC unit
(unlike the rest of the house), dark shades, and a nice sofa.
Great for summer reading.

-- for this summer (ideally)
finish reading the Roth and Oates catalogues
research the Riemann hypothesis and prove it

-more realistically I will more than likely read some of that Alan
Harrington, it sounds pretty good
- I also hope to put up a little pynchon fan website sometime soon
("Otisville?!"  "it's just a little place, Mr Luthor")
