Seconding Foucault's Pendulum

Feel better soon, Jean, hope your vacation will do wonders to your health!

Just to throw it out there, and to have this Russian classic satirical novel at least on the initial list:
I nominate The History Of A Town by M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin

I second And Then There Were None - as you rightfully point out, Jean, the book's standing should not suffer because of my problems with the movie.

Also second Catch-22.

Seconding White Fang.

Seconding
Grapes Of Wrath
The Picture Of Dorian Gray

Seconding (or re-nominating, whichever applies) The Hound and seconding the Orient Express.

Sorry, cannot vote for And Then There Were None - for me this is an unfortunate case of a movie...

Seconding:
The Time Machine
The Island of Dr.Moreau

Nominating La Peau de Chagrin by Honore de Balzac.

Seconding Gargantua et de Pantagruel

I nominate Quo Vadis by Henryk Sienkiewicz.

Don't we already have The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde on the list of nominations? I remember seconding it a while earlier.

Who knows, we are a diverse crowd here, with quite a few voracious readers. So anything is possible.
If you do nominate Captain Blood, count my vote.

I second Slaughterhouse-Five and Pride and Prejudice.

Nominating Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott. (Another must-read for Soviet kids - isn't it, Jean?)

Seconding The Little Prince.

Nominating Les Grandes Familles by Maurice Druon.

Seconding Leatherstocking and The Last Of The Mohicans.
(Funny that just the other day I also thought about nominating one of Cooper's novels, but real life stuff intervened :) )

I'm currently...

Seconding:
Dune
Foundation trilogy
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (and Through the Looking-Glass)
The Bonfire Of the Vanities
Robinson Crusoe
Les Misérables

Nominating:
Les Liaisons...

Seconding Crime and Punishment.

Seconding the following:
Everything is Illuminated
All Quiet on The Western Front
War of the Worlds
An American Tragedy

Nominating The Old Man And the Sea by Ernest Hemingway.

I second Don Quixote and The Shining.

I second 20,000 Leagues... (was going to nominate it myself, really) and Brothers Karamazov.
