Try Practical Common Lisp or Land of Lisp instead. They are both much more accessible. Then read ACL.

Seconded, Practical Common Lisp was instrumental getting me to think in a sound modular fashion.
Agreed. Read Graham's books after you're somewhat comfortable with the language, to learn advanced techniques. Norvig's books on Common Lisp are also a good place to start.
