Yeah, I suppose the Burroughs following that devours stuff like The Western Lands and Nova Police trilogies are fairly cult-ish.

"Geek Love"-Kathrine Dunn This is a great novel that people seem to rediscover or someone reccomends it to them, I read it and really enjoyed it.

I've never read Perv.
Back in the nineties, this guy who was a supposedly good friend of many years (and my roommate at the particular time) stole most of my valuables and unexpectedly moved to Washington, D.C., while I was working as a cook one night.
He was the typesetter editor for "Geek Love."
Also of note was one Marquez volume and he did many of Hiassen's books too.

The Secret Game by Donna Tartt is a title that's been recommended by word-of-mouth for many years now.
