Wherein We Elect Our Favourite Novels of 1938

lol i was given scoop by my journalist aunt and uncle 30+ years ago and still have yet to read it

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Tempted to vote Daumal but probably going with Rebecca.

I've see the film of Young man With a Horn with Kirk Douglas not sure if it sticks to teh book much even if it's set in teh original era.

& I know I read Nausea in my teens and Brighton Rock somewhere along the way as well as seeing the films.

Young Man With A Horn the film has a lesbian subtext with Lauren Bacall iirc

Out Of The Silent Planet by C.S. Lewis -- terrible piece of shit

honestly how can you say that when the covers were so good

The only three I've read are Murphy, Nausea, and Out of the Silent Planet, all of which I liked pretty well when I read them.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

A note for 1939. The Christie with the offensive title is the most notable one. All of John Dickson Carr's novels were minor.

Thanks, will keep that in mind!

two Lost Cause apologists in here, I see -_-
