In fact, you did select the trilogy (as have several others). Heikki Raudaskoski selected Molloy as
his top novel. Given that it could be argued to be a seperate work (I don't want to waste too much
time arguing about what is and isn't a novel so I'm using a "follow your nose" approach at the
moment) I'll let Heikki decided whether the nomination stays as it is or not.

Thanks
