Don DeLillo
Follows an eventful day in the life of Eric, a self-made billionaire who gets stuck in traffic in the back of his limo on a journey across New York to get a haircut. He conducts his business and his life from the confined space, his bodyguards worried that he may be a target. Complex but uniquely matter-of-fact, this book will challenge you and make you think.
Mario Puzo
The classic novel about Don Corleone and his crime family set in New York's criminal underworld.
Hanya Yanagihara
A profound and beautifully-written novel about four ambitious US college friends who move to New York to begin their lives and careers after graduating. Deeply disturbing, but with an enduring human love and kindness, this book will move you in a way that none has before. Everyone should read it.
Sandra Cisneros
A coming of age story about Esperanza, a Hispanic child in Chicago, told through a series of vignettes as she attempts to make sense of life and find her own path in a foreign world. Vividly written with Chicago as an interesting backdrop.

Weekend in Chicago: Itinerary for 3 days in Chicago + mapI first visited Chicago all the way back in 2010 and my recollection of the city had become somewhat hazy so I decided it was high time I go back.

Pirate Alley in New Orleans and one of history’s strangest storiesNot every city has a street named Pirates Alley. But even among those that do, it's probably not common to see the inky crescent of a pirate hat bobbing along the walkway. It's stark and suspiciously…small.
