| The Thorn Birds totally holds up! I've read it three times, starting when I was a freshman in high school. Blew my young Catholic mind...both the content of the book and that my super religious parents owned and displayed it on the family book shelf! |

| LOVED Pachinko. Plus one on the Vanishing Half. A couple of recent one of these I liked was the Paper Palace. Hello Beautiful was also good and fits the bill. |

Great minds, poster. 
I also laud the poster who recommended Buddenbrooks - one of the best family sagas in world literature. |
