1. Kitchen - Banana Yoshimoto (half of the world I want to live in) 2. Fear of Dreaming - Jim Carroll (my favorite living poet) 3. How Loathsome - Tristan Crane and Ted Naifeh (the other half of the world I want to live in) 4. A Lover's Discourse - Roland Barthes (made me realize academia and suffering need not go hand in hand) 5. The Power Book - Jeanette Winterson (words fail me here) 6. Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell - Susanna Clark (my reaction to it made me realize some important things) 7. The Dark is Rising - Susan Cooper (made quite the impact on my young mind) 8. Sappho: A New Translation - Mary Barnard (opened poetry for me) 9. Gender Trouble - Judith Butler (made me realize I can comfortably hold my own with "experts") 10. Sexing the Body - Anne Fausto-Sterling (gave me back science)
