	A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving As a devout John Irving fan it's hard for me to choose among his books, but this one was mesmerizing on all levels that count.
	Team of Rivals: The Political Genius of Abraham Lincoln by Doris Kearns Goodwin I've read dozens of works on Lincoln but none better than this one. It proves for all time that old Abe was the best politician and leader this country has ever had, towering literally and figuratively above all others.
	Lush Life by Richard Price Some describe Richard Price's latest work as crime fiction at its best while others deem it literature of the highest order. I simply call it great writing.
	The Road by Cormac McCarthy An apocalyptic work by a master at the top of his craft. My only caveat, if you're already severely depressed, you may want to hold off reading it until you're in better spirits.
	Angela's Ashes This adjective-free account of Frank McCourt's childhood is that rare thing indeed: a story that can genuinely propel you through the length and breadth of the emotional spectrum. You will laugh while you are crying.
