Why read it?
1 author picked Tales from Watership Down as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
While I don’t think it’s possible to have one favorite novel, anytime I need to list just one on an author questionnaire, I usually pick Watership Down; it’s one of the most brilliant books I’ve ever read, and one that rewards repeated rereads.
