About ten years ago got into the habit of reading a Dickens novel every December started with Christmas Carol and its become part of Christmas for me even though they arent Christmas novels. One to avoid though is Moby Dick I cant give up when I've started a novel but that one was a slog
Enjoyed a few Robert Louis Stevenson and Walter Scott ones too.
Tale of two cities is a great book but my favourite Dickens is probably the lesser knpwn Barnaby Rudge.Read pretty much all the classics...my top 3 would be...
grapes of wrath. Stein beck
a tale of two cities. Dickens
in cold blood. Capote. ..not sure if that would be a top 100 tbh.
Some great literature in front of you mate....
Never tried James Joyce, maybe I'd enjoy him if you liked Moby Dick :).I loved Moby Dick, one of my all time favourites. If you want a real slog, James Joyce is your man!!
I,d go...Tale of two cities is a great book but my favourite Dickens is probably the lesser knpwn Barnaby Rudge.
True enough babshka, ,,,,,crime and punishment is worth a go though.Nobody, ever, has read War and Peace.
If you meet someone who says they have, they are lying. It's dirge. Not just normal dirge but true unsurpassed dirge with knobs on. Plus , it makes no sense. Loads of Russians with similar names and jobs and titles mushing around doing stuff.
In fact, thinking on . Dirge doesn't do this overbearing monotonous pile of shite any justice.
And it's 14 million pages long .
In Cold Blood is just brilliant.Read pretty much all the classics...my top 3 would be...

I was going to read War and Peace when I was doing jury service (twice), but I had seven cases to hear, and this occupied most of my time.Nobody, ever, has read War and Peace.
