I am reading:
Pudd'nhead Wilson, by Mark Twain. Dan Attoe recommended it. He said that Ed Ruscha said that it was the first Postmodern book. It has a coherant story, and it is very clever. It is a sharp satire of racism and identity.
and
Postmodernism: A Graphic Guide to Cutting Edge Thinking, by 4 or 5 people. This is a very interesting, minimally complicated look at Postmodernism, and it deals with art mostly, and some science and philosophy. It is better than it looks like it should be, it has a pink cover with the Andy Warhol Marlyn Monroe face peeking up from the bottom.
