Must Reads, Revisited

Two years ago, I created a Must Read list of books on this blog. That list was a reworking on an earlier list from an earlier blog of mine (when I still used MySpace.) The list contained 16 books that I had been meaning to read for some time. Two years later, of the 16 books, I have read four (House of the Spirits, Dubliners, The History of Beauty and Breakfast at Tiffany's) and given up on one (Love in the Time of Cholera.) So, I am compiling a new list, starting with the eleven remaining items from the first list, with some new additions. Here is what is has on it so far...

1. Me Talk Pretty One Day, by David Sedaris
2. On the Road, by Jack Kerouac. I've tried picking this one up a couple of times, but have yet to finish it.
3. Lives of the Artists, by Giorgio Vasari. I've read many excerpts, but never the whole thing. Has interesting facts about the lives of famous artists, even if the information is questionable in its veracity.
4. The Prince, by Machiavelli
5. A Clockwork Orange, by Anthony Burgess.
6. The Picture of Dorian Gray, by Oscar Wilde. (I'm about halfway through this.)
7. Breakfast of Champions, by Kurt Vonnegut.
8. Don Quixote, by Cervantes. I know I've read this, but I think I was far to young to appreciate it, and really don't remember it well at all.
9. She's Come Undone, by Wally Lamb.
10. The Baron in the Trees, by Italo Calvino.
11. The Plague, and The Rebel, both by Camus.
12. The Open Society and Its Enemies, by Karl Popper.
13. Utopia, by Thomas More.
14. Fear and Trembling, by Soren Kierkergard. (About halfway through this one, too.)
15. In Defense of Food, by Michael Pollan.
16. Howl, by Allen Ginsberg. (I actually got an edition that has the poet's original drafts with edits alongside the final version of the poem, as well as lots of commentary.)

Some of these books have been on this list for a very long time now. I am certain there are things that I have meant to read for a while, but am not thinking of right now. The existence of this list and the fast clip at which I tend to move through books notwithstanding, I just can't seem to get this list down, probably because of all the things I pick up to read in passing (recently, News From Nowhere by William Morris, Mysteries of the Middle Ages by Thomas Cahill, and Seven Ages of Paris by Alistair Horne.) Despite this fact, I am always open to suggestions as to what else belongs on this list. Thoughts?
