i bet you're just envious .)

as for self-help books, try The Game by Neil Strauss - no great literature but rather educational.

I read the unbearable lightness of being the other day, it's ok, probably a must read, but you can do it another time.

I think I read the outsider too but for the life of I can't remember a thing.

What I would recommend is Godel, Escher, Bach by Douglas R. Hofstadter, if you like to go deep and moist into our conciousness of being.

I'll go with Beckett and probably Camus... and if you're already there it's one small step to Sartre's more literature-like stuff.

Beckett - Godot & Endgame is a must though :)

If you're able to read french/german just a bit I'd get the '3-language edition' which should'nt be much pricier. It's pretty amazing how he re-wrote his own stuff in different languages while trying to stay as close as possible to the meaning of things rather than simply translating them.

Go for "Franny and Zooey" or his most famous work "The Catcher in the Rye", but his "Nine Stories" are good too. Also I just found this website you might enjoy. :)
