A Confederacy of Dunces
One of the BBC's '100 Novels That Shaped Our World' - A monument to sloth, rant, and contempt, this is Ignatius J. Reilly of New Orleans, who crusades against a world of dunces. Despite being considered unhinged by the ordinary folk of New Orleans, Ignatius embarks on his mission against vice, modernity, and ignorance, all while managing his new job, a pirate costume, and a hot-dog cart. This hilarious satire is a modern-day Don Quixote and includes a foreword by Walker Percy.
