A Confederacy of Dunces
Maybe the fact that I'm a New Orleanian has something to do with it, but I just love this book. It does not get any funnier. It's set in the N.O. of the Sixties, and centers around Ignatius J. Reilly, a 300-pound legend in his own mind, as he tries to incite a worker's revolution, sells hot dogs from a giant weenie-shaped cart, and gets beaten up by lesbians. There is absolutely no way I can describe this in a way that will do justice to it.
