Books Recommended by Joseph Epstein

In The Novel:Who Needs It? the always witty and interesting Mr. Epstein describes the "canon" of a number of critics, and then in a loosely organized fashion describes his own. My apologies to him if I have included--under author names--novels that he would not have put on the list. I've read many of these, and concur on their greatness And what fun it will be to start in on the rest!
