Default Re: Help an English lit noob out - need some good fiction

A really amazing book that no one ever seems to have heard of is "It Happened in Boston?" by Russell Greenan.

If you have a really good dictionary at hand (preferably the OED), you might like Mason & Dixon, by Thomas Pynchon. It's definitely not an easy book but it was a blast to read.
