For me the 60's would also have to be "A Rose for Ecclesiastes" along with "Dune" and "The Andromeda Strain" all of which I read as a kid because my Mom had copies of the books. Until just a couple years ago, these were my idea of what the 60's in Sf were, a combination of science and... religion, in the case of "Rose" and "Dune," man's desire to overreach their abilities in "Andromeda." That being said I have not read much from this era so I am looking forward to sinking my teeth into some new reading. I probably will not even get to this challenge until next year, but I am already planning what my reads will be. I still have 2 years left in the 50's.
