Catch 22, Ellroy, Atwood, Chandler, Tolkein, Pullman, David
Mitchell (not the comedian but I do love him), Hammett (I like my
noir), smattering of sci-fi and fantasy - Philip K Dick, Vonnegut,
Greg Keyes, Guy Gavriel Kay. I have a book length interview between
Hitchcock and Truffaut which I will get round to reading soon, but
it's a little large and/or pretentious to crack out on the bus
(also it's ended up in Mexico...long story). Currently chunking
through A Song of Ice and Fire.
Erm...pretty much most food, except olives; they can go to hell.
