The Guardian Picks the 10 Best Historical Novels, but What is a Historical Novel
The Guardian has posted a list of The 10 Best Historical Novels. You can check out the list here. The comments are a lot of fun, too. I browsed through some of them before making up this post.

Couple of books I would like to get my hands on. Thank you for the link.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. 1 out of 10. I wonder what the Cleo or Woman's Day equivalent would brand me. A wanna be literary?
ReplyDeleteInteresting list. My list would be very different.

I read none of these books and know only two by author and title.
ReplyDeleteTolstoy definately belongs on the list. Most of the others I haven't read. . . Yet. I respect the Guardian enough to want to read them.
