One book on the list:
The Human Stain by Philip RothRead about another entry on the list.
Roth's novel ends with a fishing episode that is as far from philosophic serenity as you can get. Zuckerman finds Les Farley, whom he knows to be a killer, ice fishing on a secluded New England lake. On the ice next to him lies the ice-augur, his murderously sharp cutting tool. "And now you know my secret spot ... You know everything ... But you won't tell nobody, will you?"
--Marshal Zeringue
