I much prefer American novelists like Twain and Cooper, Germans like Goethe, Fontane and Mann, or even Froggie Proust!

I agree. The 19th Century Brits were tedious. American were vivid.

You need to try on a little Kipling, sir, if you haven't lately. A few hours of Kim or Captains Courageous can really help.
