What book would you like to snuggle under covers with, and why?
"I’d snuggle under the covers with V.S. Naipaul’s A Bend In The River, one of my favorite novels, and J.G. Farrell’s wonderful The Singapore Grip. I’d also include almost any fiction written by George Eliot, Thomas Hardy or Henry James."
