 SS-GB was my first exposure to speculative fiction when it came out.
 Great book.

 My father used to take the train to work, and he'd pore through 1-2
 books a week on the ride. I always remember him reading a spy thriller
 or SF paperback, but I wasn't sure what he did with them when he was
 done; I think my mom donated them to the local hospital where she
 worked.

 The two books I remember reading from his stack of books were SS-GB and
 DUNE.
