1. The Princess Bride - I rediscovered the joy in willfully allowing the primacy of fantasy over reality
2. The Little Prince - every time I read it there's something profound uncovered
3. 1623 Shakespeare Folio or The Bible - both excellent reads, both take a bloody long time to get through. In fact, I took both to a desert when I went...
4. Hitch hiker's Guide to the Galaxy/Good Omens
5. Flowers for Algernon - if you haven't read it, you must, it's absolutely devastating
6. Mine - though I appreciate that the employment of the past perfect tense here is a somewhat negative assumption that, despite my continued existence, it will never happen. It might.
7. Any of the unmitigated tripe that passes for 'celebrity autobiography'
8. Prisoner of Love, Jean Genet
9. I can't narrow it down to one as I have been meaning to read the entire corpus of literature. I'm getting there.
