nope...how come I have never heard of practically any of these books? Because that's what this thread is all about (Name a book. Not just any book, a book that is barely known, whose author is barely known, but is a good book. No classics. Tell whether you've read the book the person before you named. Then name a book yourself, plus who the author is if you know. No repeating books. )
