I recently read 'One hundred Years of Solitude', and I think it's the best book I've ever read. The language, imagery, vitality of it are incredible. I've heard so many say they were bored by it and I just don't get it. Otherwise, I also greatly enjoyed 'Trout Fishing in America', which is beautifully psychedelic, 'Stoner', which is probably the most genuinely heartbreaking prose I've ever read (the last few pages of my copy are covered in tear stains), and 'Siddartha', which not only has a wonderful message, but reads so easily, like a song or a prayer. I have recently also been totally blown away by the poetry of Rumi. If anyone is interested in mysticism, Sufism, or just beautifully hopeful musings, then I also really recommend it.
