A Winter's Tale We don't know if it's the long nights or the stark landscape of winter, but somehow classics just lend themselves to this season. If you're like us, you might be surprised at the books that have escaped you but shouldn't any longer. Eleven must-reads from our experts:
11) Mrs. Dalloway “Yes, yes, you saw The Hours in the theatre, perhaps read Michael Cunningham's novel, but please don't hesitate to return to the source, Virginia Woolf's Mrs. Dalloway. Follow Clarissa through the course of one day in June in London. Amid gorgeous imagery of flowers and first love, you'll also feel the searing effects of war on shell-shocked veterans and their overwhelmed families, with a backdrop of an insensitive medical establishment that seeks its own betterment. How contemporary can a classic be!”
