Can anyone suggest books (fiction/bio's etc anything) that I must read as a matter of intellectual necessity? Or that I must read just because they are soooo good? I am preparing for a 24 hour flight as well so all ideas for that welcome too!
I am interested to know what other people recommend.
I am currently reading Bel Canto by Ann Patchett and I am absorbed. Didn't see how it could unravel, but it has, and now I just wonder which of the characters is going to make it.

Perhaps "Is there a creator that cares about you?"
See my blog for details.
Confession of the New Eve by Angela Carter - interesting.
I read the Bible once while camping in the Jura with my father and his current squeeze.
also Puckoon by Spike Milligan.
And Titus Alone by Mervyn Peake
And Volume 1 of The History of Sexuality by Michel Foucault.
I think it is actually Passsion of the New Eve.
Her Bloody Chamber is very good too,
