Question
What is the best book Ive never read?
Im a ravenous reader. Nonfiction, fiction of nearly every genre I dont read romance. Ive gone through the quotclassicsquot, loved some hated others. Ill still never understand fans of Catcher in the Rye!
Answer
When I was at university I discovered the works of John Dos Passos. His trilogy of novels quotThe USAquot nd Parallel, NineteenNineteen, and The Big Money absolutely blew me away by its depth, complexity and sheer inventiveness. brbrThe novels tell the story of the USA at the beginning of the th Century, and of the ultimate prices a nation pays for becoming a superpower. This group of novels has haunted me ever since. If you havent read them PLEASE do yourself a favour and check them out.brbrCheers, mate.
