I was wondering if instead of just posting a title, everyone could post a little about why they see the book as "eyeopening". I've read some of these books and didn't find them enlightening in the least, so I was hoping to gain some insight.

Cheers.

I will add:

Lipstick Traces: The Secret History of the 20th Century by Greil Marcus This book traces the history of anti-art up from the Dadaists, through the Surrealists, the Situationists all the way through to punk. It was one of those books that I read at just the right moment. A lot of the things that I had been thinking about at the time came together in this book. It is a great read for anyone interested on pop culture and the history of where it comes from...
