Timequake by Kurt Vonnegut
The Straw Men by Michael Marshall
Palmerston is not a big town, nor one that can convincingly be said to be at the top of its game.
Vineland by Thomas Pynchon
Later than usual one summer morning in 1984, Zoyd Wheeler drifted awake in sunlight through a creeping fig that hung in the window, with a squadron of blue jays stomping around on the roof.
Collected Fictions by Jorge Luis Borges
In 1517, Fray Bartolomé de las Casas, feeling great pity for the Indians who grew worn and lean in the drudging infernos of the Antillean gold mines, proposed to Emperor Charles V that Negroes be brought to the isles of the Caribbean, so that they might grow worn and lean in the drudging infernos of the Antillean gold mines.

Dallas Day 2
I'm driving home from work and I can't get "Eleanor Rigby" out of my head even though the last song I heard was Chris Issak's new single. I turn off the radio to cancel out the conflicting melody. The night went pretty quickly, mostly because I have good people to work with. Vince spends most of his time showing me around and keeping me company. He has sleepy eyes, a Texas accent, and a big nose that moves up and down when he talks. Marjorie looks like a Russian nesting doll, with perfectly seperated eyelashes. The people that work at the location I'm monitoring are friendly, but eye me and Vince suspiciously when they think we're not looking.
Now I'm back at the hotel room and the weight of the past day is already pulling at every molecule in my body. I could swear the bed has a gravitational field.
