Missing

While reviewing my reading list this year, I realize there are quite a number of good books that I never have the opportunity to read (from cover to cover).

This is, again, an incomplete list:
  • A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
  • Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
  • The Joke by Milan Kundera
  • 1984 by George Orwell
  • The Valley of Fear (of Sherlock Holmes) by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
  • The Travels of Marco Polo
  • Genesis of the Bible
  • From Fish to Philosopher by Homer Smith
  • 黃宗羲 《明夷待訪錄》
  • 吳敬梓 《儒林外史》
PS. For those who are not familiar with examination terminology, "never have the opportunity to" is the synonym of "forget" or "do not know".
