Sarraute and a truckload of strategy books

Since my last post,I spent three days straight in a library for professional reasons. So I read the complete works of Nathalie Sarraute on the way down (I'm in Washington), and then I read the following books. I thought I wasn't going to be able to do it. I did it, but now I'm really tired. Here's the list:
