Gain of Fiction Reading List (Season 2)
by Glen Rockney
As I wrap up Season One of Gain of Fiction, I figure I may as well give the bros some time to get a head start on the Season Two GoF subjects. I’m going with a smaller list since I ended up changing the last one once a month, it seems. The order of the books we cover may change due to scheduling and other factors, but anyways, here’s the list.
Them (Joyce Carol Oates)
The Executioners (aka Cape Fear) (John D. McDonald)
Ask The Dust (John Fante)
Gulliver’s Travels (Jonathan Swift)
The Moon is A Harsh Mistress (Robert Heinlein)
The Corrections (Jonathan Franzen)
Last Exit to Brooklyn (Hubert Selby)
Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up To Me (Richard Fariña)
Rage (Richard Bachman)
Crash (JG Ballard)
Stoner (John Williams)
The Black Dahlia (James Ellroy)
The Name of The Rose (Umberto Eco)
Angels and Demons (Dan Brown)

Some bangers on here. Looked up Oil (hadn't heard of it) and saw it was the inspiration for There Will be Blood. It's racked and ready now!
I hated Stoner, but I know there are loads of people who love it.
