reading (like the festival, but more tropical, and with fewer rockstars)
For those of you who don't know, I'm leaving for India soon. I have a ticket for 6 months - from December through June. I plan to spend much of that time in a beach hut with a stack of books (clearly, this is when I'm not riding elephants, eating chickpeas and lentils, and playing with monkeys). This is where you all come in -- I want people to tell what their essential reading is. My limited backpack is going to be full of books, and I'm gonna read them all. So! Make me a list! I want to know!

Books I'm sure you've probably read already but if you haven't should:
Brave New World by Huxley
Catch 22 by Heller
Cat's Cradle by Vonnegut
I Am Legend by Matheson
High Fidelity by Hornby
Newer books I've read in the last couple years that I really liked:
The Amazing Adventures Of Kavalier & Klay by Chabon
The Fortress Of Solitude by Lethem
Choke by Palahaniuk
Fargo Rock City by Klosterman
The Dirt by Motley Crue
