Book Buying Binge

I wanted to splurge on something but shopping doesnt fancy my imagination. So I went ahead on a book buying binge and left the shop with a box full of the following books:

• The Age of Wire and String - Fundoo postmodern essays on day to day lives
• The Accidental Theorist - supply side economics, downsizing and other economic essays
• The Uses of the Past - some pulp book about meaning of history
• More Peanuts - classic Schultz comic
• The Black Cloud - Hoyle's lovely combo of science and sci-fi rolled into one
• A History of the World in 10.5 Chapters - blurb sounded interesting
• The Chemicals of Life - Any Asimov is a must read
• Music and Imagination - analysis and interpretation of compositions and synthesis sources
• A River Sutra - Wanted to read this for a while
• Memory Keeper's Daughter -picked it because it was free given my volume of purchase
• Skinny Legs and All - Cant wait to read this.One of the last Tom Robbins' great works
• The Mathematical Sciences - Literal whos' who of science penning essays on their core areas..Too good to not pick it up
• The Perfumed Garden: Middle Eastern KamaSutra tranlsated by Sir Richard Burton
• A Confederacy of Dunces - The evergreen satirical pultizer prize winner
• Moneyball - I am currently trying to read evey single work of Michael Lewis
• The Sun Also Rises - HeeHaaw! Got the first 1926 edition(sadly no cover).It will be my first Hemingway read
• We - Given that it was inspiration to 1984, it must be a read
• Poems & Letters of Emily Dickinson - need I say more why we need this?
• Gandhi's Truth : The 1970 Pulitzer winner which delves into psychoanalytic theoryand how militant nonviolence can enrich people's lives.
• Tintin in the New World - Very deceptive cover but I suspect this would be another unusual book that borders on profoundity
• The Copenhagen Papers - Wanted to watch the 1999 Tony award winning play "Copenhagen" but couldnt make it and hence wanted to make it up by reading this
• The Short Reign of Pippin IV - Steinbeck could also write like this ..satire at the master's best
• Foundation and Earth: Never could get this (stopped my foundation series at 3..)

There. I have an year to finish all these now...Its almost an ensemble of what I typically like in a book store.
