Richard Braughtigan’s “Trout Fishing in America”

Kafka’s “The Hunger Artist”

J.D. Salinger’s “Bannanafishing”

Poe “Fall of the House of Usher”

Leopold Van Sacher Masoch “Venus in Furs”

Good call on “The Old Man and the Sea”

Go figure that he’d also be an excellent writer. The book is a joy to read.

It’s beautiful price enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made just right content material as you did, the net shall be a lot more useful than ever before.
