mariabokmal's "list of books that may be interesting"

Add to my lists |

From various sources I’ve discovered books that I want to read or have been recomended. This is a list of such books.

1-24 are from the suggested reading list (not the complete list) in "Reading Lolita in Theran" by Azar Nafisi.
25-52 are books (the ones I could find) mentioned in Agatha Christie’s "An autobiography".
