I second The Good Soldier, second Main Street and third The Thirty-Nine Steps.

We have a little over 24 hours left for nominations.

Thank you pynch, I've added the links to the nominations.

Main Street, The Age of Innocence, and The 39 Steps can all have a nod from me.

Yes, and since I can't fathom another nomination being made and getting the requisite support in a few hours, let's consider the nominations closed. I'll have the poll up shortly.

ETA - The poll is up!
