The Ten great books:
It was elle who told me about it first. Subsequently, a lot of discussion has been generated around the choices and reading habits following the release of this book last week. Had a quick peek through and its amazing how you and your favourite authors almost have related taste in books if not matching.
Although I am not into quantifying , I am definitely into lists. So spent a few minutes of considered thinking to choose my deci-list. And the cream is almost the same of that Irish wag John Banville. And, ain’t I pleased about it?
So here’s Banville's:
Ill Seen, Ill Said
Notes from the underground
Ulysses
Doctor Faustus
Moby-Dick
Lolita
Austerlitz
Dirty Snow
Gulliver's Travels
Vanity Fair
And here’s mine:
Ulysses
Notes from the underground
Moby Dick
Invisible Cities
Lolita
Great Gatsby
The Trial
Magic Mountain
On the road
And I always find it hard to pick between English Patient and Catch 22.
If you have nothing better to do for now, go make yours.
