Although it's not really fiction, this huge bestseller from the last century deserves a mention! Andy writes:
"In the 1980 satirical title, The Official Preppy Handbook by Lisa Birnbach, (for all those who don't remember, this was a send-up of all things East Coast Establishment/Top Drawer), the author lists the five best musical selections for a Sunday brunch. These musical selections were considered the best choices as Music to Drink Bloodies By. "Bloodies" are, of course, Sunday morning Bloody Marys, as one nurses a hangover from the previous nights' debauchery:
1. J.S. Bach, Brandenberg Concerti
2. The Beatles, Rubber Soul
3. Handel: Water Music
4. Joni Mitchell, Court and Spark
5. Vivaldi: The Four Seasons
Considering the competition, I don't suppose we should feel too bad that C&S only made it to Fourth Place!"
