First go find some version of the CLHS ("Common Lisp HyperSpec"), e.g.:
http://www.lispworks.com/reference/HyperSpec/Front/index.htm
Then click on the "Master Index" icon, then on the "Non-Alphabetic"
link, and browse the left-most character on each line.
But before you do that, you might find it more helpful to obtain a
somewhat higher-level view of the Common Lisp reader:

2.2 Reader Algorithm
This section describes the algorithm used by the Lisp reader to
parse objects from an input character stream, including how the
Lisp reader processes macro characters. ...
