The Nobel 5 Challenge

nobel5.jpgSome of us have been reading and reviewing books by Nobel winners at Read the Nobels, and Aloi has just challenged us to read and review 5 books before the end of the year. I’ve already read three so far in 2008: Independent People, The Bluest Eye, and Life & Times of Michael K.

Here’s my list for the rest of 2008 (I might substitute if necessary):

  1. Kaddish for a Child Not Born by Kertesz (2002 laureate)
  2. Detective Story by Imre Kertesz (2002 laureate)
  3. Beloved by Toni Morrison (1993 laureate)
  4. A Mercy by Toni Morrison (1993 laureate)
  5. Kristin Lavransdatter 2: The Wife by Sigrid Undset (1928 laureate)
  • Dr. Zhivago by Boris Pasternak (1958 laureate)
  • ? by Steinbeck (1962 laureate)
  • The Fifth Child by Lessing (2007 laureate)
