Just finished Bartleby the Scrivener, a great comfy read.

Benito Cereno is great too.

Entirely different, but with a similar pacing and length I'd recommend First Love by Beckett.

God I hate this picture so much. They utterly ruin Bartleby by giving him this le so world weary teenager sardonic face.
