I've tried reading a few but failed on most. I think 'Life of Pi' and 'White Tiger' are the only two I've enjoyed.
I fell asleep reading 'Amsterdam' yesterday - although it started well.
What is it all about?
'White Tiger' was poo-poo'ed by the snobby judges. No doubt because it's readable enough for us commoners. It's the best selling Booker winner.
Surely it's better to chose a book with something important to say which says it in an accessible and interesting way. Then more people will enjoy and learn.
