It's the end of the world....
And we're all getting on a ship to travel to a new world and start over again!
You can bring up to 5 books to share with the future generations of humans.
Think hard about what you think is important for the people of the future.
What will you bring? (fiction, non-fiction, textbooks, anything is welcome)

okay, pandora, spill the beans. I saw 2012. Where is the ship and how much are the insanely expensive tickets? just kidding. books? ah, heck. if the world's ending soon, who has time for books.
cheers!
i was actually thinking of Galapagos for my Vonnegut choice (fitting for island castaways)... but hell, lets add Breakfast, Slaughterhouse, and Cat's Cradle too
so I got one left... um... Can I choose a collection of short stories? I would want "the Death of Ivan Ilyich" and most of Hemingways stuff
my list could really use some less depressing reading :?
anything from Sedaris would be good
