EVERYMAN definitely a fav, if only for so succinctly doing everything i want/love from roth
PATRIMONY something i finally started reading a week or two ago, & have been distracted from but hope to return to at some point. start was sobering.

I have those three Zuckerman novels in a single volume. I pretty much read a Roth novel each fall, so time to do those.
