Wharton vs Soderberg for me, with Wells (Kipps) vs Forster vs Mann for 3rd place.The Haggard and Wallace books are superior fun tosh.

Soderberg is the only one I've read. Can't vote unless I've read more than three.

Wharton's the only one I read as an adult -- Little Princess and the L Frank Baum one I read as a kid.

The House of Mirth is one of my favourite books, so that. It's a masterpiece.

Btw, people might know Professor Unraut better as THE BLUE ANGEL, under which title it is sometimes published and was filmed.

A worthy winner, but now I wish I'd given Doctor Glas by Hjalmar Soderberg my vote to show it some love :(

I've been put off The Age of Innocence since reading that it was something of an attempt to make amends for the harsh treatment of NY high society in The House of Mirth. Because wtf, HoM is the best and they deserved it.

Age of Innocence is also brutal towards NY high society tho...
