Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie, definitely.

Having seconded someone else, 2008 was the fiftieth anniversary of the publication of

Chinua Achebe's Things Fall Apart: the story of a strong man. Try to have it finished bythe end of the year. Don't just read it, in other words, read it RIGHT NOW!!!

If you LIKE comics/SF and so on, it's a tough read but Thomas Pynchon's Gravity'sRainbow.

Lawrence Sterne' Tristam Shandy.

Another difficult book: Finnegans Wake by James Joyce

Don Quixote by Cervantes

On the Road by Jack Kerouac

Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess

Terra Nostra by Carlos Fuentes

Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein

BONUS TRACKS:

At least part of Journey to the West by Wu Chen-En

Jorge Luis Borges's short stories, especially The Library of Babel, the Immortal and Tlön,

Uqbar, Orbis Tertius.



Gertrude Stein's The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas

EDIT: These are not in order. Read them all but read Things Fall Apart NOW. However,

while that book practically created modern African Literature and made Wole Soyinka's Nobel possible, it suddenly occurs to me I left off a book which made at least Gravity's

rainbow, and probably most of Michael Chabon's novels possible: make a New Year's

resolution to read Kurt Vonnegut's Cat's Cradle if you haven't.
