The books he recommend
..................................
These are some books that are very important to me.

If This is a Man by Primo Levi. In America they titled it Survival in Auschwitz to try to sell more copies.

Siddhartha by Herman Hesse

The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway

Demian by Herman Hesse

Candide by Voltaire

Metamorphosis Franz Kafka

Beyond Good and Evil by Nietzche

Catcher in the Rye and Nine Stories by J.D. Salinger. My favorite short story from the latter is "For Esme with Love and Squalor".

The Grand Inquisitor (Book V, Chapter V of The Brothers Karamazov by Dostoevsky. This one is all about how if Jesus were to show up today how he would be rejected by society as he was 2000 years ago.

The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand is one of my favorites.

Man's Search for Meaning Viktor E. Frankl. I highly recommend this one. Highly.

Confederacy of Dunces by J. K. O'Toole. This is the funniest book and the writer killed himself before it was even published. He later won the Pulitzer Prize.

Captain's Verses by Pablo Neruda. My favorite poem is "Lovely One".

Green Eggs and Ham, and Oh, The Places You'll Go! by Dr. Seuss

The World As I See It Albert Einstein

The Glass Menagerie including the accompanying essay The Catastrophe of Success by Tennessee Williams

Elegant Universe by Brian Greene, if you are interested in a simple explanation of the amazing mysteries of the world

Complete Stories and Poems by Edgar Allen Poe, particularly "Gold Bug" and "Descent into Maelstrom". His personal essays at the end are amazing.

Adventures of Don Juan by Carlos Castaneda. I like when he speaks to lizards.

The Way of the Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman. My mom had me read this when I was a kid.

The Alchemist by Paul Coelho. I think this is a simple version of Siddhartha.

When David was a little boy, his mother, who raised him by herself and worked three jobs to support their small family, often dropped her son off after school at the public library. You can see photos of his beautiful mother in the gallery section. As a result of all his time in the library, David became very well-read at quite a young age. One of his favorite books is Herman Hesse's 'Siddhartha'. Here is a quote from this remarkable book, we hope you enjoy. More to come.

“When you throw a stone into the water, it finds the quickest way to the bottom of the water. It is the same when Siddhartha has an aim, a goal. Siddhartha does nothing; he waits, he thinks, he fasts, but he goes through the affairs of the world like a stone through the water, without bestirring himself; he is drawn and lets himself fall. He is drawn by his goal, for he does not allow anything to enter his mind which opposes his goal…Everyone can perform magic, everyone can reach his goal, if he can think, wait and fast.�? - Herman Hesse, Siddhartha

Any Harlan Coben or John Grisham books are good

After Many a Summer Died the Swan- Aldous Huxley

All books in the Dune series (the origional ones, not the ones that Herberts son wrote. I don't know if those are any good or not as I've not read them)

All of the Chronicles of Narnia

the adventures of shane west

The Gunslinger series by Stephen King are also really good for the most part.

Dan Brown - Angels and Demons, The Da Vinci Code

Clive Barker, too many to list. I like them all.

Lord of the Rings

the cross- james patterson

Any book with Fabio on the cover...

Eyes of the dragon by Stephen king was really good also.

I love William Gibson Neuromancer, Mona Lisa Overdrive.... Dean Koontz, Fear Nothing and Seize the Night also the Odd Thomas Series.

Tolkien and Gotta Love C.S. Lewis both fiction and non. Bruce Sterling...

animal farm - george orwell
1984 - george orwell

Nice! 1984 was really good. Brave New World is another good one.

Life of Pi is a great book

animal farm is awesome, lots of gay sex, very enjoyable

bunnicula is a good read. its about a bunny that is a vampire. i read it when i was 14.

wasnt there a thread like this already?
i like chuck palahniuk lately, particularly survivor, choke, and fight club. survivor the best.

Hmm. Survivor is his best book imo. Have some rep for showing good taste.

Ulysses by Joyce. Only pussies don't finish what they've started BTW.

Anything by Iain M. Banks, but in particular Use of Weapons, The Player of Games and Excession.

If you decide to read just one book recommended in this thread, and it isn't Use of Weapons by Iain M. Banks...you made the wrong choice.

And if it is The Fountainhead, get sterilised. Your genes are no good to the human race.
