100 novels everyone should read - Telegraph

I would try getting selection of these in e-form to read when time's on hand like long flights.

I've only read six

And I consider myself someone who reads far more than average.

You're well read, relatively speaking. I've read just five.

Interesting, about 44 for me, but I will admit I spent a lot of time travelling in the late 70's and the 80's in 3rd world countries when the social media was in the far, far distant future and a good book was an excellent way to while away the time whilst waiting for trains, buses, rides etc. Book swapping was also an important aspect of travelling before vcrs and the like became popular.

From an Australian perspective, I'd chuck in a couple of Patrick White's novels along with some Peter Carey perhaps.

Well I have read 15 or so, and have added a few to my 'must read' list.

Actually, I have to admit that I didn't enjoy 'Oscar and Lucinda', but I did like 'Bliss'.

Patrick White should be on that list!

22. Mostly as an avid reader of classics as a teenager.

So this is the WP list? When do we get to see the proper one???

80 to go then! But I have always leaned more to science fiction, with dabbling in other genres.....
