 hese are my personal favourites and they may not agree with yours at all, which is tough, but I don't persuade easily. If you think a book should be in the list, or you want to tell me where I went wrong let me know - the worst thing that can happen is that I will disagree with you. I read pretty widely, so I have a feeling that I must have come across most of the good stuff by now, but I may be in for a treat. One thing I am sure of is that there are some great books yet to be written.
