I'm not sure In Cold Blood is totally non - fiction, its too literary to be journalism, it is a great book though.
Other good ones
Globalisation and its Discontents
Head On - Julian Cope
Shakey (the Neil Young biography)
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil - John Berendt
London a Biography - Peter Ackroyd
How to Talk Dirty and Influence People - Lenny Bruce
Fight the Power - Chuck D and Yusef Jah
Fast Food Nation - Eric Schlosser
Sophies World - Jostein Garder (its a story about a girl and her philosophy teacher but also a beginners guide to the history of philosophy)
Love All The People - Collected works of Bill Hicks (terrible title but pretty much indispensable compilation of transcripts and interviews)
