i used to be a morrison-hater. but i read son of solomon last quarter and it was breathtaking at times. i mean, i still think she overdoes things...like, she's just overly dense and abstruse when she probably doesnt have to be...i dont like that..but she can get down so i suppose she can be forgiven.

kerouac is one of my favs. and if dude is rambling, its the kind of rambling that could never bore me. i love him *no homo*, for real. and i like the buddhism...lol

gibran..thats my other man *no homo* probably my favorite author without a doubt.
also love hermann hesse. steppenwolf is a really important book for me.
nabokov is gully.
james baldwin yesss.
chinua achebe, well i already spoke bout him above.
v.s. naipaul - above.
eldridge cleaver - every black person, every person actually, but every black person, black man especially i think needs to read soul on ice. its so relevant today its ridiculous.
