I'm reading Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs. My library had a table of "banned books" and Brokeback Mountain was there so I picked it up and read it this afternoon since I finished Nabokov's Lolita this morning.

Just finished reading Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, don't know what to read next.

I loved it. Junky dreams and withdrawl stories to an invisible audience of A.J.s and Dr. Benways.

The Alice series looks interesting, but there are a ton of books for it. Anybody know how long they are, or are they even good?

Lolita, while you're on the subject of fucked up sex lives.

Alternatively, some Kafka.

>> No.1169941

I was kind of surprised they had something like that since the library is really picky about what they carry in general-- there was a big thing a few months ago about them refusing to order any Nabokov and a few other novels.
