Having just finished On the Road, I’m now in search of a new book for College English. His book was a solid step away from what I usually think of as literature, but it was strangely refreshing. I think I want something different for my next book though. Earlier, I read Foundation and enjoyed it also. I was thinking maybe Herman Hesse’sSiddhartha. Buddhism was my inspiration to go with Kerouac for the last novel; maybe it will lead me further.

Any ideas out there?
