I’ve been reading a lot of contemporary novels recently and I’m now in the mood to read something 19th century. I’ve read a fair few of the classics so I’d love to know if anyone has any lesser known favourites?

Nando's has a 32,000 piece collection of South African art that it displays in its restaurants around the world.
It's rare to find such a positive corporate story, but the artists I spoke to who sell work every few months to the chain said it was a big reason they could be full-time artists
