Like most writers, [Millard] Kaufman is an avid reader; he calls F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" a "masterpiece" and said he rereads it once a year. His highest praise, however, goes to Charles Dickens' "Bleak House." "I think it's the best novel ever written in the English language," he said. "Dickens is unbelievable—his choice of the apposite word and his humor—and it's so interesting because he's so good at writing but he made such a mess of his own life."Note: You may download the Grammar eBook Build Your Vocabulary and get all 406 vocabulary words.
