Gravity's Rainbow
Delillo's White Noise
Watchmen (graphic novel)
Cormac McCarthy's The Road.

I'm supposed to be re-reading Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury for the same professor's class. Don't think that's gonna happen.
Nice list for a class. On the Road is kind of a throwaway for an otherwise impressive group of works.
