[lbo-talk] good reads?

[Joanna]

Hell, why not give fiction a little try?

For the sublime:

Chekhov: "Ward No 6," "The Kiss," "In the Ravine"
Maupassant: "Boule de Suif"
Tillie Olsen "Tell Me A Riddle"
B.R. Traven "A Bridge in the Jungle"
Conrad "N-word and the Narcissus"
R.K. Narayan "The Dark Room"
Virginia Woolf "To the Lighthouse," "Mrs. Dalloway"

For just normal entertainment:

Kenneth Fearing "The Big Clock"
Manil Suri "The Death of Vishnu"
David Lodge "Trading Places"
