Reading: A Love Story
The Rereading List
PAGE 3
The odd combination of moods, desires, and satisfactions that makes you the willing prisoner of a language and world you can't bear to give up. A list of such books will be as mysterious in the end as the personality of the reader. Mine are:
- The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
- To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee
- Cannery Row by John Steinbeck
- The Winds of War by Herman Wouk
- Miss Lonelyhearts by Nathanael West
- Skippy by Percy Crosby
- Play It As It Lays by Joan Didion
- The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien
