[Kimberly]

Momento Mori by Muriel Spark

[Diane]

Les Chants de Maldoror by Comte de Lautréamont.

Caim by José Saramago-

I think The Gospel According to Jesus would be a better choice than this one.

My first by Eugenides - what a fabulous writer!
Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides - 5 stars - My Review

[Nocturnalux]

Thousand Cranes by Yasunari Kawabata.

[Mia]

In a Glass Darkly by J. Sheridan Le Fanu.

Not what I usually read but I really liked these stories. I think The Room in the Dragon Volant was my favorite because the end was so unexpected.

[Joy D]

Finished:
On Beauty by Zadie Smith - 4 stars - My Review

[Peter]

Sexing the Cherry by Jeanette Winterson.
Perhaps my mind is simply too literal to be a fan of magical realism tales and therefore really appreciate this but I still found it a remarkably original and imaginative piece of writing which deserves to be on the 1001 list.

[Nike]

I just finished The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath
and I'm overwhelmed by it.

[JenniferAustin]

Bob wrote: "Moll Flanders by Daniel Defoe"

I just read Moll Flanders, too! I was delighted. It's a page-turner (or was for me).

[Carol]

Just finished The Sound and the Fury by William Faulkner.

Does anyone have a list of all the books on this list that use stream of consciousness? I can't stand it and would love to have a list of them, so I could read them now and get them over with! I know about this one and A Girl is a Half-formed Thing. Any others???

[Dina]

Just finished The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon

[Karen]

Excellent question and no, we do not currently have a list. However, I have started a discussion on the topic of Stream of Consciousness Novels in the Genres, Themes, and Topics folder so we can get a list started. It can be found at Genres, Themes, and Topics -- Stream of Consciousness Novels.

Post your suggestions there.

The Autumn of the Patriarch (by Gabriel Garcia Marquez) is more or less, but more the writer's stream of consciousness than the character's. A challenging read. Most of Virginia Woolf's are somewhat in that style, esp The Waves.

[Ellinor]

Finished House Mother Normal by B.S. Johnson

[James]

Kristin Lavransdatter by Sigrid Undset

[EJ]

There appear to be a few Edgar Allen Poe short stories on this list.
I just read "The Fall of the House of Usher, and the Pit and the Pendulum". Both amazing stories when consider the quantity of horror is so few words.

[Alice]

Falling Man by Don DeLillo

[Diane]

Finished Castle Richmond by Anthony Trollope.

[Peter]

The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende.
This is a complex story that the reader has to invest in to but it is also a beautiful piece of writing and one that I will certainly remember.

[Dina]

Finished The Hive by Camilo José Cela. Very interesting book but it contains over 300 characters and it’s hard to keep track of everything.

[Joy D]

Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen - 3 stars - My Review

[Nocturnalux]

Beloved by Toni Morrison.

Absolutely extraordinary.

[Ellinor]

Finally finished Pallieter by Felix Timmermans
