Classics, classics classics: Gogol, 'Diary of a Madman.

Lonesome traveler__ Jack Kerouac

Poor folks and Other Stories__ Dostoyevsky

Doctor Faustus__Christopher Marlowe

Shakespearean plays, dystopian SF novels and previously banned books. That pretty much sums it up. I'm a buyer now. Millions of books have been thrown away since the advent of computers. I'd put my inventory up against the local library selection. It seems they are really stuck on Nora Roberts.
