Longest book you've ever read.

Probably Atlas Shrugged - 1168 pages.

I don't know how many pages the longest book I've ever read had. Critique of Pure Reason and Mein Kampf are up there though. And the bible. All very long and tiresome.

Ramayana, and I didn't finish :D

Suitable Boy -- Vikram Seth

Probably Hugo's Les Miserables, in German translation. I have an edition in two books: the first one has 856 pages, the second one 683, thus in total 1539 pages.

Vanity fair, 920 pages.

A long, long time ago: Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. More recently, Bleak House by Charles Dickens.

i think say a prayer for owen meany was up there also...

and it seems like the stand by stephen king might have been even longer...

Do tracts count?

Flaws?

Anna Karenia I didn't think I was ever going to get throught it at times I thought my head was going to :flare: . But it didn't and I did, and it was well worth it to.

Gone With the Wind- over 1000 pages, and one of my favourites. So far.

Well, I've completed three volumes, or about 1600 pages, of The Story of the Stone, but I still have 700 pages to go -- does that count?

The Brothers Karamasov 988 pages in norwegian.
