A brilliant road map for discovering history, science, civilization, and the human condition, this engaging record recommends must-read books: those so revealing about times and places that they take the reader beyond day-to-day concerns into a magic realm of knowledge and imagination. From Arthur Koestler's take on the universe and Barbara Tuchman's view on 14th-century life to F. Scott Fitzgerald's impressions of American morality and Robert Fisk's analysis of the West's history of intervention in the Middle East, this engaging account is an idiosyncratic and endlessly interesting tour of the world through literature.

Having read some of The Torchlight List I decided to try 'On Chesil Beach' by Ian McEwan not having read any of his novels at all. It was an excellent read. Thank you for that Professor Flynn.
A new edition is going to be published soon so I would be interested to see what has changed.
