All my life I refused to read anything past 19th century. I finished Jean Genet which I liked, I once read Le Marin de Gibraltar par Duras, and I didn't like it at all, but if I read it now I'm sure I will appreciate it more. I want to read Alain Robbe Grillet! I must no? But the edition of his books is so expensive! I also have some books on Naturalisme et Realisme and an overview of the history of the novel. But these will have to wait.<b> <b>The Good Authors, </b> Camus, Kundera, Maugham, Proust, Collins, Melville, Wilde, Orwell, Balzac, Zola, Flaubert, Baudelaire, Sarraute, James, Woolf, Les Goncourt, Eliott, Christie, Simenon, Verne.<br> <b>Favorite Poems, </b> The prisoner of Chillon, The Sea, par Byron, The deserted village, par Goldsmith, Sonnet 116, par Shakespeare |
