My top ten favorite books (so far):

● Samuel Beckett, Watt
● Alfred Bester, The Stars My Destination (aka Tiger, Tiger)
● Mikhail Bulgakov, The Master and Margarita
● Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote
● Philip K. Dick, Ubik
● Neil Gaiman, American Gods
● William Gibson, Neuromancer
● Joseph Heller, Catch-22
● Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., Breakfast of Champions, or Goodbye Blue Monday
● Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., The Sirens of Titan

The following books do not fit my top ten list but they are very important for me so I decided to add them to my basic list:

● Ray Bradbury, The Martian Chronicles
● Ladislav Fuks, The Cremator
● Daniel Keyes, Flowers for Algernon
● Gabriel Garcia Marquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude
● Venedikt Yerofeyev, Moscow-Petushki

All above books except for Flowers for Algernon I read in Polish translations (three of them in two or three alternative translations) – the novel by Daniel Keyes I read in English because it was not translated into Polish so far.

On the fourth page of this thread carpetmojo told about the British TV format “Desert Island Disc”. The people have to choose ten discs to stay with them on the desert. After they finish that task they are asked about one disc which they would like to save after the cataclysm on the desert.

I met this challenge. Here is my only one book which I would like to save after the disaster (it is not a book from the above lists):

● James Joyce, Finnegans Wake
