I've only recently started to get into lit and read just one book from each writer but I'm extremely adept in poetry. I plan on getting Pavese's Diary book,The moon and the bonfires, Pynchon's V and, Williams's Butchers crossing. Currently reading Lolita and enjoy it!

I'm reading the crying lot right now. I had to reread the first chapter to get into the characters, but I really enjoy it. Is most of Pynchon's work like this?

Houellebecq's poetry collection <The Art of Struggle> is really one of his best books
One of my favorite poetry books of all time, along with Borges' sonnets
If Houellebecq's poetry isn't offensive enough for your taste you can check out Rimbaud's <A Season in Hell>
