I was going to read something Mammoth over the break, either War and Peace or Don Quixote, but I'm bloody fagged out, guv, and the list has split into crime thrillers and short masterworks.
The Short Works of Genius list looks like this:
Flannery O'Conner - A Good Man is Hard to Find
Cormac McCarthy - Outer Dark
Nathanael West - Day of the Locust and Miss Lonelyhearts
Nick Cave - And the Ass Saw the Angel
Henry James - The Spoils of Poynton
Edith Wharton - Ethan Frome
Samuel Beckett - Malone Dies and The Unnameable
Aside from the top three I probably won't glance at them until the end of the semester.
My crime thriller list looks like this:
Stieg Larsson - Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Will Beale - L.A. Rex
Benjamin Black - The Silver Swan
James Crumley - The Last Good Kiss
Lawrence Block - Eight Million Ways to Die
John McFetridge - Everyone Knows this is Nowhere
Ian Rankin - Resurrection Men
Michael Connelly - The Narrows
