Tom Wolfe's 5 most important books

Tom Wolfe told Newsweek about the five books most important to his own writing.

One title from the list:

Appointment in Samarra by John O'Hara.

It gave me the idea for how to write The Bonfire of the Vanities, which is told from various points of view.

Read about the other four titles at Newsweek.
