This post is selfish in nature (aren't all posts though?) in that I am now accountable to read these books. Hopefully I will be posting about them in the future.

Freedom...
I just wrote my last undergrad exam last night and feel somewhat cathartic that it is over. I feel that now I can write and read without obligation literature that I want to read. And to cultivate my fiction portfolio, I asked my wife to recommend three books to read. They were Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin, Dostoevsky's The Idiot, and Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray (note: these are not her top three novels, just novels recommended for me).

The Idiot is likely my favourite work of fiction! It is closely followed by: Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk; On the Road by Jack Kerouac and White Noise by Don DeLillo (no relation to the terrible movie starring Michael Keaton) if you want other suggestions.
ReplyDeleteI just read "I love you forever" by Robert Munsch to Jack. Becoming one of my favorites.
