I’ve managed half way about three times, I really do need to finish this book. It’s one that always made me want to read it wrapped up in a blanket and sitting outside in mid-winter, preferably with snow on the ground. This might be why I’ve never finished it.
There is also The Magician, by Colm Toibin, about Thomas Mann's life, which I think is marvellous.

That does sound like quite a chilly reading experience for 752 pages!
