I am such a reader that if I got paid for it, I would be an extremely rich person. Unfortunately, I am not paid, but that doesn’t stop me. Nothing stops me unless my Kindle runs out of juice.
Guess what? I just came across a list of books that one can read in ONE DAY. This is fantastically convenient for busy people. Are you busy?
Then let me help you:
- The Invention of Morel, by Adolfo Bioy Casares, translated by Ruth L. C. Simms
- Of Mice and Men, by John Steinbeck
- Animal Farm, by George Orwell
- The Hound of the Baskervilles, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
- The Postman Always Rings Twice, by James M. Cain
- Passing, by Nella Larsen
- The Stranger, by Albert Camus
- Pedro Paramo, by Juan Rulfo, translated by Margaret Sayers Peden
- The Awakening, by Kate Chopin
- In Watermelon Sugar, by Richard Brautigan
- The Autobiography of an Ex-Colored Man, by James Weldon Johnson
- Death in Venice, by Thomas Mann, translated by Henry Heim
- We Have Always Lived in the Castle, by Shirley Jackson
- A Single Man, by Christopher Isherwood
- Cane, by Jean Toomer
- Giovanni’s Room, by James Baldwin
- O Pioneers! by Willa Cather
- Bonjour Tristesse, by Francoise Sagan, translated by Irene Ash
- Billy Budd, Sailor, by Herman Melville
I have not myself read many of these, but I very much appreciate this handy list.
