A List of Twice Six Books
- completed reviews -
+ suggested Nobel reads that didn’t fit into my 2017 planning
- A number in numbers:
Paul Auster: 4 3 2 1 (2017)+ Nobel Prize in Literature 1938 – Pearl S. Buck: 14 Stories (1961) in the Pocket Books edition of 1963, but if you have a better suggestion... - A building:
Shirley Jackson: We Have Always Lived in the Castle (1962)
+ Nobel Prize in Literature 1949 – William Faulkner: The Mansion (1959) - A title which has an ‘X’ somewhere in it:
Alfred Döblin: Berlin Alexanderplatz (1929), original German title: Berlin Alexanderplatz+ Nobel Prize in Literature 1991 – Nadine Gordimer: Beethoven Was One-Sixteenth Black (2007) - A compass direction: Ana María Matute: Celebration in the Northwest (1952), original Spanish title: Fiesta al noroeste+ Nobel Prize in Literature 1962 – John Steinbeck: East of Eden (1952)
- An item/items of cutlery:
Katie Flynn: No Silver Spoon (1999)+ Nobel Prize in Literature 1932 – John Galsworthy: The Silver Spoon (1926), second book of A Modern Comedy, the sequel of The Forsyte Saga - A title in which at least two words share the same first letter – alliteration!
Amos Oz: Black Box (1986), original Hebrew title: קופסה שחורה
+ Nobel Prize in Literature 1993 – Toni Morrison: Song of Solomon (1977)
Fun! Plenty of good books there, of which I have read many.
ReplyDeleteOh, I hope that they will be good books - knowing that you have read many of them, should be a good sign.
