novels novels everywhere, or so it seems...

     It's apparently time for novels. This happens to me. I won't read novels for a long time then, bam, I start reading nothing but novels. 
     Note that I didn't say 'fiction.' This is not a pedantic distinction. There is 'fiction,' which is overrated, and then there is The Novel, which is a mysterious form. It's lineage has many ramifying branches, and yet there are only a few truly great Novels. I'm looking for them.
