For Classics Spin, #16, I got #4: Arsène Lupin, by Maurice Leblanc
For Classics Spin, #17, I got #3: The Face of Another, by Kobo Abe
I’m really thrilled, because I really like Japanese literature. I have already read his The Woman in the Dunes, which is a weird story. I like his writing however, so I’m curious to discover another book by him.
So I have until end of April to read and review it.
It’s never too late to challenge yourself to (re)discover the classics and connect and have fun with other Classics lovers. See what this is all about.

HAVE YOU READ THESE TITLES?
WHAT DID YOU THINK?
IF YOU ARE MEMBER OF THE CLASSICS CLUB,
WHAT IS YOUR #3?
Kobo Abe is indeed weird! I have read three of his novels: The Woman in the Dunes,
The Ruined Map, and The Box Man, all back in 2001. The Woman in the Dunes was the one I liked best.

it will be interesting to see how his ‘weirdness’ applies here, lol

Ive never heard of him so will have to watch out for your review to find out whether he is as odd as other comments suggest
