[net.books] John Barth

Another vote for "Giles Goat-Boy".  A must for the goat-lovers
of the world.  At my last place of employment, I managed to get
one of my co-workers to read it.  The others just laughed.  Well,
what do you expect of people at Harvard, anyway?

I actually saw the name of my favorite author of fiction in a recent
article here.  John Barth is Professor in the Writing Seminars at The
Johns Hopkins University.  

FICTION:

	The Floating Opera
	The End of the Road
	The Sot-Weed Factor
	Giles Goat-Boy
	Lost in the Funhouse
	Chimera
	LETTERS
	Sabbatical

NON-FICTION:

	The Friday Book


For an unusual experience, if you're not familiar with Barth, Read "The
Friday Book" first.  Then read the fiction.
