Other choices for columns

I went home this weekend and raided my mum's mid-60s University English student bookshelf for some more top books that haven't seen the light for a while. Here are those that I came up with:

 

Katherine Mansfield, In a German Pension (Mansfield is an absolute genius)

Alexander Solzhenitsyn, One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich (required reading when I was 14; post-the fall of Communism what has happened to Solzhenitsyn's reputation?)

John Steinbeck, Tortilla Flat

Alan Sillitoe, The Loneliness of the Long-distance Runner

Cesare Pavese, The Devil in the Hills

Christopher Isherwood, Goodbye to Berlin

Oliver Goldsmith, The Vicar of Wakefield

Edmund Gosse, Father and Son

Iris Murdoch, The Flight from the Enchanter (everyone's seen the movie and read the memoir; who actually buys the fiction?)

Edgar Mittelholzer, The Jilkington Drama

Anthony Hope, Rupert of Hentzau

Lawrence Sterne, A Sentimental Journey
