    Nothing to crow about really, but I have read none of these: books nor authors. I am not a 'novel' fan. A few I recognise through their works being filmed for big or small screen. I wonder though how the books stack-up against the filmed stories?
    I know from reading: The African Queen, The Heart of Darkness and The 39 Steps that the films come out on top. The Heart of Darkness being the hardest pill to swallow as it is a blow by blow rendering of Apocalypse Now, moved from Africa to Vietnam. [or rather the other way around, book first then film]
    The Victor Hugo novel, Les Miserables is a stonker of a tale. My mind boggles as to what the stage musical has in common with the book.
