A list of my great books (some I've read many years ago and I'm not sure if rereading them would still make me feel they're that great, but younger minds can more easily be overwhelmed by a book thana cynic old one): "The Piano Teacher" - Elfriede Jelinek "The Golden Pavilion" - Yukio Mishima "The Island of the Damned" - Stig Dagerman "Cloud Atlas" - David Mitchell "Foucault's Pendulum" - Umberto Eco "1984" - George Orwell "Poison" - Kathryn Harrison "The Sandman" - Neil Gaiman "Accelerando" - Charles Stross "Chasm City" - Alistair Reynolds "A Catcher in the Rye" - J.D. Salinger "The Satanic Verses" - Salman Rushdie "The Shadow of the Wind" - Carlos Ruiz Zafon "Mythago Wood" - Robert Holdstock "Dirty Weekend" - Helen Zahavi "Imagica" - Clive Barker
