Just discovered this world books list for the first time via the BBC website. Any other fans of Vikram
Seths A Suitable Boy (India) out there? Please dont try to read it in 1.87 days, read it slowly and
soak it up. A book to stay with you for always.

advise you to read some works by Wang xiaobo, such as Black iron age, Silver age,Bronze age and
Golden age(i dont know whether i translate these titles correctly).
All the best

Ann, I suggest to add one more book for Ukraine Evenings in a village near Dikanka, by
N.Gogol (1809-1852). He was one of the first authors to introduce the spoken Ukrainian to the
official literature. Hope, you like it I think its fun! You can read it at the weblink below. Good
luck!

I came upon your blog from the list of Recommended Blogs by WordPress. An excellent project and
I am glad to see my country, Malaysia, is already in your list! The reading list is currently too short
though, as we already have 14 National Laureates
I would like to recommend two Malaysian writers to add to your reading list:
1) Adibah Amin This End of The Rainbow
2) Dina Zaman I Am Muslim and King of The Sea.
Wish you all the best in this project.

time? Congratulations I know your world will be greatly enriched through the process.
Anyway, heres a suggestion for you from Kenya:
Chidlren of Saba http://www.amazon.com/Children-Saba-Epic-Aphrike-Trilogy-
ebook/dp/B00GKA1KJO
Its a relatively new book but its already had some great reviews. Its full of suspense and tells the
epic story of a family discovering a secret, powerful legacy handed down to them by their ancestors.
It brought to life the majesty of Africas mysteries and vanishing tribes past and present full of
adventure and I couldnt put it down I hope you love it as much as I did!

I do not see anything listed for Bermuda- the UKs oldest colony. Shakespeares The Tempest was
based on the reports of the discovery of Bermuda, unfortunately all secondhand. A number of
authors have written in Bermuda, Eugene ONeil, Mark Twain and James Thurber being a trio of
American writers who treated the island as a second home.
Mary Prince, born in Devonshire, Bermuda- the freed slave and anti-slavery agitator wrote her
autobiography, which greatly influenced UK Parliament to rid the colonies of this trade.
Another Bermudian writer had some good reviews in the 70 & 80s, a Brian Burland- his best book
probably being A Fall from Aloft, The Sailor and the Fox coming in close behind.

Thanks Charles. Yes, thats right. I read books from UN-recognised sovereign states (plus
former UN member Taiwan), which is why Bermuda is not on the list, a personal regret for me
as I know the place well. It was however a contender for my Rest of the World wild-card choice
to represent countries not on the UN list and Brian Burland was the author in the frame for
that. You can read more about that here http://ayearofreadingtheworld.com/rest-of-the-world/

Hi. Just happened to pass this column by sheer luck or rather good fortune now as I feel so
encouraged to read more books. Such an inspiration. By the way, i would also recommend the
following Hungarian novel>pl utcai fik /the paul street boys by Molnar Ferenc. Keep up the good
work and wishing you all of the best. Cheers.
