Nabokov appeared to his son and told him it would be ok to publish it, so you can quit thinking you're morally superior to all of us because you're respecting his wishes the book not be read.
Not reading Laura because Nabokov didn't want you to, is as dumb as believing he really appeared to...
Palahniuk lists his favorite books on his website - chuckpalahniuk.net.
I search for books my favorite authors have written forewards for. It's one thing to give a book a blurb, but to write a foreward means that author really likes the author and the book.
Women by Bukowski
Killing Johnny Fry by Walter Mosley
My girfriend comes to the city and beats me up by Stephen Elliott
All 3 sexual, mildly violent books.
On The Road is nothing like any of your favorite books listed. Judging you by your favorite books I dont think you'd like On The Road. But give it a try and maybe your favorites will change.
Portnoy's complaint is my favoirte Roth book. It's about sexuality. His desire for his mother, his desire to dominate and posses women, so while it's funny it's not for every one.
Zuckerman is roth's alter-ego. The books where Zuckerman is the main character are
Ghost Writer

I love Delillo and have been impatiently waiting for this books release in paperback (in the US) in June. several parts of the novel have been released as short story's in Harpers over the past few years.
In the afterward of the 50th anniversary edition of Lolita, Nabokov talks about how many times he almost set fire to the manuscript and how relieved he was that he never did.
I understand Nabokov not wanting his unpolished work out there for all of us to judge. But why not publish it with a...
I have a theory. There's no debate that the books have a fun story line, are entertaining, and suspensful.
Here's the thing - they are written at a low reading level, they're suppossed to be young adult books. There must not be complicated symbolism or metaphores that are crucial for...
I skipped the harry potter sieries. I will not go into why.
I doubt anyone on this website has only read harry potter. If so they would have joined a harry potter message board - not a general book one. Both my Sister and one of my cousins list the potter sieries as the only books they've...
Yes, Roth was and still is scadalous. Portnoy's complaint is filthy and marvelous - he masterbates on the bus and has a girl eat a doughnut of his...
ellis & palahniuk are the only authors listed below that I think deserve a place on the list.
What’s up with all the personal attacks on this website. There’s this desperate need to be right without any discussion. Just a quick condescending quip and whoever posted feels good about themselves because they are right and whoever they were attacking is wrong. There’s a difference between...
Oh, more people who want to fight.
If we want to get this person into reading we need to start them out with characters they can relate to. In situations they can relate to. In high school I thought I hated books because of all the crap on the reading lists. Shakespere doesn't speak to me...
extremely loud and incredibly close by jonathan safran foer is not dark and depressing - but it's a major tear-jerker. About a little boy dealing with his fathers death on 9/11.
