Nice list. "Godel Escher Bach" was one of those great books, that I am still very hesitant to suggest to people - it's not for everyone, and it gets very dense about halfway through. So beautiful, though.

Pro-tip for readers of "A Clockwork Orange" - there is a glossary at the back! I read it to the end before I realised that. I'm not sure if knowing that in advance would have made it better or worse, though!
