nothing wrong in reading das kapital, although its really heavy stuff there. Or even mein kampf for that matter.As for my must read list:
1) The catcher in the rye- J. D. Salinger
2) Cosmos- Carl Sagan
3) V for vendetta (yes I know its a comic book, but what the heck, its a flippin good comic book)
also
4) To kill a mockingbird- Harper Lee

i cant believe i never realised lowyat had forums for readers...
my three would probably become 1000 if i dont stop... but i think when u say three must reads... it depends on the genre... rite? i mean if you are a fan of fantasies... i'd list harry potter right on top of the list... but there are those who are completely against books like that...
so...
for general fiction i'd say:
1. the curious incident of the dog in the night time
2. the catcher in the rye
3. the alchemist
4. a thousand splendid suns
(sorry cant help but list another one... coz i couldnt decide which to reject from the list)

you should check out james joyce's "a portrait of the artist as a young man"
It was pretty good as well
