Best book I ever read.

Walt Whitman's Civil War, by Walter Lowenfels.

http://www.amazon.com/Walt-Whitmans-Civil-Capo-Paperback/dp/0306803550

(A collection of Walt Whitman's letters and journal entries; full of insights in some ways more profound than his poems. Highly recommended.)

David Jones, 'In Parenthesis'.

Fyodor Dostoyevsky, "The Idiot".

Special Topics in Calamity Physics by Marisha Pessl

I read Raymond E Feist's Into a Dark Realm yesterday, and it was very disappointing compared to his earlier work. Am still considering buying the next in the series despite it receiving poor reviews. Despite the jaded nature of his recent books, they are still quite compelling.
