    Default Favourite Books.

    Surprised no-one's done this before now. I'm primarily thinking of novels, but if you want to include non-fiction - feel free, I'm not going to be tight-arsed and prescriptive about it. Here are some of my favourites down the years. In no particular order:

    The Orphan Master's Son - Adam Johnson.
    The Narrow Road To The Deep North - Richard Flanagan.
    Bonfire Of The Vanities - Tom Wolfe.
    The Cement Garden - Ian McEwan.
    The White Hotel - D.M.Thomas.
    The Deptford Trilogy - Robertson Davies.
    Birdsong - Sebastian Faulks.
    One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest - Ken Kesey.
    A Kestrel For A Knave - Barry Hines.
    Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas - Hunter S Thompson.
    The Uncommon Reader - Alan Bennett.
    The Son - Philipp Meyer.
    The Power & The Glory - Graham Greene.
    A Thousand Splendid Suns - Khaled Hosseini.
    The 2nd Rumpole Omnibus - John Mortimer.
    Saki: The Complete Short Stories - H.H.Munro.


    Over to you.
