    Since no one has answered Samantha's post, I will start again:

    I haven't read Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco.

    Angels and Demons is better than DaVinci, in my opinion, but it's still not all that wonderful, compared to a lot of other popular fiction. It's a good read, though. He manages to pull of a few good twists, but there are some things you can easily figure out before the end.

    I haven't read Little Women by Louisa May Alcott.

    I read Little Women a loooong time ago, and fondly recall it as one of my favorite childhood stories.

    I have never read Of Human Bondage by W. Somerset Maugham (but I would love to someday!).

    (I am sure it will be particularly difficult for some of you to come up with such titles! ).

    Only someone who has read that particular book can reply!

    Tell us when you read it and what you thought of it.

    And then give us the title of a book you haven't read.
    Let's try again

    I haven't read One of Ours by Willa Cather.

    Oh, what a shame! I did! Enjoyed my first Austen and laughed my head off, certainly the second time and neevr looked back.

    I haven't read the Divina Commedia/Divine Comedy by Dante (yet).
    One has to laugh before being happy, because otherwise one risks to die before having laughed.

    I kind of feel like playing this game, so I'll answer "partly". I've read the Inferno only. I really liked it.

    I haven't read a single novel by Charles Dickens. I've tried a few times. . . but his characters just seem like talking manikins to me.

    I've read "Of Human Bondage"- it's a brilliant read. It was a while ago now but I remember that it was an interesting perspective on male/female relationships.

    I have read some of Dickens' books in English (Great Expectations, David Copperfield, Bleak House, A Tale of Two Cities and Pickwick Papers) and I find them mostly entertaining because of the caricatures they provide. Dickens shows a great sense of humour compared to some of his contemporaries (say, Bronte sisters or George Eliot).

    I have not read The World According to Garp.

    Thanks for bumping, Papaya!

    I've read Garp, but I was young (15 maybe) and I didn't think it was really that great. Maybe I just missed the big picture. Some of it was silly.

    I haven't read The Poisonwood Bible.
