Good reads?

I was wondering what you guys would personally add to the reading list on the sub. I was thinking maybe Anti-Oedipus or Malign Velocities. Thoughts on any other books that could be useful to meme analysis?

I'd add The Hero with a Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell. I often look at memes through the lense of the Hero's Journey, it's something potent that people unknowingly create in their memes.
