Daniel Deronda by George Eliot. I enjoyed both Deronda and Silas Marner better than Middlemarch. This may not be a popular opinion, but there it is.

In February: The 39 Steps by John Buchan, Oblomov by Ivan Goncharov & Threepenny Novel by Bertolt Brecht. Threepenny Novel is set in London though Brecht is German and wrote it in that language while he was in Denmark I think, avoiding the Nazi government during World War 2 due to his socialist sympathies.

Emma (writerinawheelchair) | 21 comments I’m trying to get back into the list. I just finished Thérèse Raquin. It was interesting, not what I expected though.

Buddenbrooks: The Decline of a Family by Thomas Mann. Excellent. It blows me away that he published this at age 26- clearly a literary genius.
