Shakespeare is good stuff. Though I'd rather see his plays on stage than read them, any day.
I just finished reading John Gardner's Grendel. I recommend it to those of you who like philosophical books. My brain is a little fried right now, because I had to write a follow-up essay about whether or not life is meaningless. x__X
FYI: Grendel is a modern retelling of the Anglo-Saxon epic Beowulf. But don't let the connection misguide you. There are QUITE a few differences...
