I've read the Wilkerson and Naipaul books on your list and might read others in the future.
ReplyDeleteGood to know! Thank you for sharing, Dorothy. Happy reading.
DeleteI really enjoyed The Housing Lark by Sam Selvon. It's about immigrants from various Caribbean islands living in London. Haven't read any of the books on your list, but there are several that I want to read. I hope you enjoy all of these! :D
