Samuel R. Delany's Literature Pillars - Page 3

"If one tried to construct the Temple of Literature from only the[fifty] "pillars" below, it would collapse spectacularly. Nevertheless, here is a contingent group of titles that, to paraphrase Christopher Higgs, if I hadn't read and reread over the years, I wouldn't be myself. How much that is worth, I'm not sure."
