Sinister: Book Recommendations
This is my first trip out of the nursery. I wanted to respond to Feather Boa's question on book recommendations. Honestly, a former English major like myself could go on and on, but I would have to say that everyone should read Sexing the Cherry by Jeanette Winterson (or The World and Other Places), both of which make me swoon. Otherwise, the world Kathy Acker creates in Pussy, King of the Pirates is well worth investigating. It's this deconstructed post-apocalyptic realm full of neat references. Also anything by A.S. Byatt (especially Possession) is a great read. I really dug Big Sur by Kerouac this summer. Well, that's my short list.
