You are going to be on a small desert island for a year. There are no bookstores, and shipping to the island is a problem. Space is also a problem.

What books do you bring?

Ok.. Some specifics:

The island is 26 miles long and one mile wide. (Look it up: Providenciales in the Turk and Ciaco islands) there's sand and sea turtles, but no Barnes and Noble.

E-books from online are a viable option, but sometimes, I need books on paper for comfort; the act of turning a page or two lulls me to sleep at night.

Already in the library:

The Call of the Wild Jack London

My Antonia Willa Cather

The Brothers Karamazov Fydor Dosteovsky

Now... Your suggestions?
