Reading List:

I'm a reader. Books have always altered my life in a number of dramatic ways and they have become a lot more than just a passtime. Some of these books are fiction, some are social criticism, collections of short stories, poetic anthologies, plays, theory and history. It's a random list of the most memorable things I've read. For your sake and mine, I ommited all the stuff I read that I thought was crap.
