> 1) Dhalgren by Samuel R. Delany > 2) The Four-Gated City by Doris Lessing > 3) Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert A. Heinlein > 4) Ubik by Philip K. Dick > 5) The Man Who Folded Himself by David Gerrold > 6) The Female Man by Joanna Russ > 7) Dreamsnake by Vonda McIntyre > 8) Lilith’s Brood (Previously Xenogenesis) by Octavia Butler > 9) The Mount by Carol Emshwiller > 10) The Gone-Away World by Nick Harkaway Of these I have read Dhalgren - a weird trip that was. Stranger in a Strange Land - seemed not at all strange to me, but I was an immigrant, myself. ^_^ Ubik - me and PKD caught up recently, and of his weird stories Ubik seems weird only at first. The Female Man - I was glad there was a book between Joanna and me, because it seemed she had reason to be angry. I may have read a couple of the others, too, but if I did I don't remember. :-P -- Helge
