I wish I could say I read as much as others here, but I'm slow and lazy. I'll mention one, though... Roughing It by Mark Twain.

Just wanted to mention, tangentially, that I'm currently halfway through Twain's Roughing It, which comes up in the article. If you enjoy wry humor, I heartily recommend the book (as well as Grover Gardner's narration, included with Audible subscription).

…want to read stuff before that (and get free books from gutenberg!) I recommend you check out Mark Twain and Joseph Conrad. Both are excellent. "The end of his tether" is my favorite Conrad. "Roughing it" is my favorite Twain.
当我需要开心一下时，我就会反复重读：马克·吐温的《密西西比河上的生活》和《苦行记》，还有他的许多短篇，特别是《我的手表》、《政治经济学》、《田纳西的新闻界》。还有其他人的短篇：J.S. Perelman 的《Strictly From Hunger》，Alex Atkinson 的《The Eyes of Texas…
