Hey fellow book lovers! I want to read books/classics from all over the world. Please recommend me favorites from your home-country, something you would want others to know/to read. Already looking forward to your suggestions!

    From Australia:

    Cloudstreet by Tim Winton. Two very different families leave the country for the bright lights of Perth

    Boy Swallows Universe by Trent Dalton. A story about growing up in Brisbane on the rough side of town.

    For the Term of his Natural Life by Marcus Clarke. Very readable novel about Australia’s convict history. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I did.
