   So many! Here are a few that I think about often: Borrowed Finery by Paula Fox; The Lost Daughter by Elena Ferrante; Pachinko by Min Jin Lee; Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee; The Autobiography of Frederick Douglass; The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson; House of Mirth by Edith Wharton.

   Certainly! J M Coetzee. In my view, the greatest writer in English for many decades. I think I have read (and owned) everything he’s written. The Life and Times of Michal K (together with Disgrace) are odes to human dignity. Coetzee writes literary pieces as a philosopher and philosophy as a novelist.
