We started at 1918, bringing you the bestselling books of the last one hundred years. Now we’re into our second decade, though we still have a way to go and today we’re looking at 1929!
Already we can see some hot authors and trends appearing now and as the years tick on it’s likely that you’ll start recognising some contemporary authors and others who have been publishing through the decades.
But today, we have the ten top selling books of 1929, and some well known books that didn’t make the cut!
Also released in 1929, William Faulkner’s classic, The Sound and the Fury, Richard Hughes’ A High Wind in Jamaica, and Ernest Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms, once again proving that the bestselling books aren’t always the ones that have longevity.
We’ll continue this series right through to 2018, keep an eye out for 1930, coming soon!
