On: Ask HN: What are some good books?

[JackGibbs]

Some authors and a rec or two for each.

DFW - Infinite Jest

Pynchon - Really anything, but in particular Against the Day, V, and Gravity's Rainbow.

Rushdie - Shame and Satanic Verses, a lot of good other ones.

Neal Stephenson - Cryptonomicon

Gaddis - JR, hence my name.

Heller - Catch-22
