De Pomaine's French Cooking in Ten Minutes

Drucker's Managing Oneself

Hemingway's A Moveable Feast

Hesse's Siddhartha

Burroughs' Mars Trilogy

Shelley's Frankenstein (with bookmarks and notes)

Le Guin's Left Hand of Darkness

Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath

Noon's Vurt

Russell's Sparrow

Poe's Essential Tales and Poems (with bookmarks and notes)

Lethem's gun, with occasional music
