This is a list of books we have found on other lists, seen referenced in other literature, that are classics, icons or controversial, or that just have interesting names or subjects. We have tried to limit the books of any particular author to those most representative or him/her or those that were/are most popular (or just the ones we have easiest access to). We've included our own book too, of course. For more info, go to www.keepthetablelaughing.com
