Yes, some books are rather long.
But couldn't we nominate Lucretius, On the nature of Things? (330 pages).
That is both challenging and literary and also would be good to read for the other choice of the Bookclub, the Swerve? It is a separate book......
And it's not expensive as well, or free I think at MR?
