20 Novels You Can Read in One Sitting

[Mark Thibodeau]

I was very happy to see Miss Lonelyhearts (and I think probably you could
do Day of the Locust in one long sitting), but how come no Death in Venice?
I know it's always referred to as a "novella", but surely if Pafko
qualifies... And anyway, to me, DiV is one of the ultimate single-sitting
reads. It's so damn impactful when read that way.

Also, I would add:

Don Delillo's Point Omega
Stephen King's The Mist (seriously)
J-K Huysmans' A Rebours (aka Against Nature)
Knut Hamsun's Hunger
