Plus Booker reading... 9 months ago

People who keep getting nominated that I should read: Ian McEwen, Rohinton Mistry.

Nominated books I should read: Andrew Miller – Oxygen; Matthew Kneale – English Passengers; Alan Hollinghurst – The Line of Beauty (2004 winner); ?Kiran Desai – The Inheritance of Loss (2006 winner); Margaret Atwood – The Blind Assassin (2000 winner); Graham Swift – Last Orders (1996 winner); Pat Barker – The Ghost Road (1995 winner); Arundhati Roy – The God of Small Things (19997 winner).

Graham Swift – “His novels are frequently organised around an underlying mystery, and his oblique and non-linear narrative technique lends itself to a gradual revelation of events in a manner reminiscent at times of the nineteenth century detective novel.”
