Soldier of a Great War, Mark Helprin: "a lush, literary epic about love, beauty, and the world at war" -- an incredible, life-changing read. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Soldier_of_the_Great_War https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Soldier_of_the_Great_War The Cornerstone and The World is Not Enough, by Zoe Oldenbourg -- an epic duology (?) about the life a Norman knight. I've never read a more vivid (even that's too weak a word) historical novel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zo%C3%A9_Oldenbourg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zo%C3%A9_Oldenbourg The Master of Hestviken by Sigrid Unset -- the most moving account of one man's life struggles I've ever read. Unset was a Nobel prize-winning author of the 30's/40's who has been nearly forgotten. I read this tetrology straight through without stopping (about 18 hours). Couldn't stop. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Master_of_Hestviken https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Master_of_Hestviken
