A Sand County Almanac is one book I have always close at hand on the bookshelf. The passage on cutting the winter's supply of firewood is heaven to me. "Seasoned oak..."

I have on my bedside right now:

1984 by George Orwell. Always a good read.

East of Eden by John Steinbeck. Better than Grapes of Wrath, though not as acclaimed. The finest book put to print in my opinion.

The rest are "boring" non-fiction tomes including The Wealthy Banker's Wife by Linda McQuaig and Fences and Windows by Naomi Klein. She's also the author of the Nike slam-dunk book No Logo.
