Top Ten - The best novels of 2009
Ten days - okay, more or less - at the end of the year, and I'm going to make the charts, because so much like a Hornby, like Eco, like at all.
These are the ten books of 2009 in my humble opinion. The best ten novels released in 2009 and I have read, I mean. Obviously in a million other titles were published there will be much more beautiful, but here I can not help but declare my limits: they are the best ten out of fifty. Among other things to account in a few weeks to read Pilone Faulkner and Suttree McCarthy, which I suspect could have their say in this hit parade.
But ok.
Here is the list. It will reach more in the coming days. Music, and then the decade.
