The Telegraph has the fifty best cult books. I'm really not sure about a definition of "cult" strained enough to encompass On the Road and To Kill a Mockingbird, but aside from that it's a pretty solid list with a surprising number of personal favorites. Calvino! Adams! Hofstadter! Vonnegut! Someone in a club tonight has stolen my ideas. (via)
