1994 cummings, e. e. 
The 120 Days of Sodom and Other Writing

Christopher says:

In my search for this, I saw that there is an Easy Read Large Print version of this book. I guess it's true that libertine hags never die. - Jan 31, 2007

1967 Sade, Marquis De 
1811 Dictionary Of The Vulgar Tongue

Christopher says:

There are so many version of this book. I guess people really like dirty words. My favourite quote from the book is "He's not going to piss my money against the wall" meaning, I'm not buying him a drink. I say it sometimes. - Feb 16, 2007

Alfred Hitchcock: A Life in Darkness and Light

Christopher says:

Approaches Hitchcock's life on a film-by-film basis. This lets the book move along very quickly, but at the expense of investigation of any real depth. A nice book, but not a definitive biography. - Mar 22, 2007

Andy Warhol (Modern Masters Series, Vol. 4)

1983 Ratcliff, Carter 
The Andy Warhol Diaries

Christopher says:

One of the high points of the 80's. The Spy magazine index to the diaries is an invaluable tool; it can send you to just the right page when you want to read about Jerry Hall's underarm sweat. - Feb 1, 2007

1985 Warhol, Andy 
Anger: The Unauthorized Biography of Kenneth Anger

Christopher says:

A good biography of someone who doesn't want to be biographized - I guess that's actually a genre of sorts (Salinger, Pynchon, Howard Hughes). Describes all his films that never get shown, if that works for you. - Feb 6, 2007

Baseball For Dummies

Christopher says:

Not that good. It's kind of chatty and trivia-laden. If you want to know about baseball, just buy the MLB Offical rules book - it's much more informative and way shorter. - Feb 6, 2007

Christopher says:

My least useful reference book. Explains common cultural references. I imagine that I could carry it around in case someone makes a passing reference to Electra or the Yellow Brick Road ( bad examples, becasue I know these), but I can't see that ever happening. - Feb 19, 2007
