The Biology of Luck: The Biology of Luck is a 2013 American novel by Jacob M. Appel.  It is a reimagining of James Joyce's "Ulysses" and is set in New York City.

Ryder (novel): Ryder (1928) is the first novel by Djuna Barnes.  A composite of different literary styles, from lyrical poetry to sentimental fiction, it is an example of a modernist novel in the Rabelaisian tradition of bawdy and parodic fiction.  Nearly every chapter is written in a different style.  The novel is thought to draw on elements of Barnes's own life.

The Violent Land: The Violent Land (Portuguese: Terras do Sem Fim) is a Brazilian Modernist novel written by Jorge Amado in 1943 and published in English in 1945.  It describes the battles to develop cacao plantations in the forests of the Bahia state of Brazil.  Amado wrote that "No other of my books. . . is as dear to me as "The Violent Land", in it lie my roots; it is from the blood from which I was created; it contains the gunfire that resounded during my early infancy", and suggested that the novel belongs to a distinct Brazilian "literature of cacao".  By 1965, the book had been adapted as a film, as well as for the stage, television and radio.

Una Vita: Una vita is the first novel of Italo Svevo, the author of the seminal modernist novel, "Zeno's Conscience".  Originally titled "Un inetto" – "inetto" may be translated as 'inept,' unfit', 'unsuitable' or 'incapable' – this name was rejected by the publisher, who requested that it be changed to "Una vita" – 'A Life' – which is also the name of a famous Maupassant novel.  The first draft was submitted in 1888.  It was refused by the publishing house Treves, and wasn't published until 1892 by Vram, at the expense of Svevo himself.

Pádraic Ó Conaire: Pádraic Ó Conaire (28 February 1882 – 6 October 1928) was an Irish writer and journalist whose production was primarily in the Irish language.  In his lifetime he wrote 26 books, 473 stories, 237 essays and 6 plays.  His acclaimed novel Deoraíocht has been described by Angela Bourke as 'the earliest example of modernist fiction in Irish'.

Tarr: Tarr is a modernist novel by Wyndham Lewis, written in 1909–11, revised and expanded in 1914–15 and first serialized in the magazine "The Egoist" from April 1916 until November 1917.  The American version was published in 1918, with an English edition published by the Egoist Press appearing shortly afterwards; Lewis later created a revised and final version published by Chatto and Windus in 1928.  Set in the bohemian milieu of pre-war Paris, it presents two artists, the Englishman Tarr and the German Kreisler, and their struggles with money, women, and social situations.  The novel abounds in somewhat Nietzschean themes.  Tarr, generally thought to be modelled on Lewis himself, displays disdain for the 'bourgeois-bohemians' around him, and vows to 'throw off humour' which he regards—especially in its English form—as a 'means of evading reality' unsuited to ambition and the modern world.  This self-conscious attitude and the situations that it brings about are, ironically, a major source of the novel's pervasive dark humour.  Lewis will later clarify that there "is laughter and laughter.  That of true satire is as it were tragic laughter".  Kreisler, a violent German Romantic of protean energy and a failure as an artist, is in many ways the focus of the novel.  An indication of the extremity of his vivid portrait is Lewis's own wondering several years later if he had, in Kreisler, anticipated the personality of Hitler.

The Sun Also Rises: The Sun Also Rises is a 1926 novel written by American author Ernest Hemingway about a group of American and British expatriates who travel from Paris to the Festival of San Fermín in Pamplona to watch the running of the bulls and the bullfights.  An early and enduring modernist novel, it received mixed reviews upon publication.  Hemingway biographer Jeffrey Meyers writes that it is "recognized as Hemingway's greatest work", and Hemingway scholar Linda Wagner-Martin calls it his most important novel.  The novel was published in the United States in October 1926 by the publishing house Scribner's.  A year later, the London publishing house Jonathan Cape published the novel with the title of Fiesta.  Since then it has been continuously in print.

Philip Ó Ceallaigh: Philip Ó Ceallaigh (born 23 March 1968) is an Irish short story writer living in Bucharest.  The New Zealand writer Charlotte Grimshaw described him as a "clever Irish writer".  Michel Faber, in "The Guardian", described his control of tone, dialogue and narrative contour as "masterful".  Ó Ceallaigh won the 2006 Rooney Prize for Irish Literature and was the first Irish writer to be shortlisted for the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award.

Ulysses (novel): Ulysses is a modernist novel by Irish writer James Joyce.  It was first serialised in parts in the American journal "The Little Review" from March 1918 to December 1920 and then published in its entirety in Paris by Sylvia Beach on 2 February 1922, Joyce's 40th birthday.  It is considered to be one of the most important works of modernist literature and has been called "a demonstration and summation of the entire movement".  According to Declan Kiberd, "Before Joyce, no writer of fiction had so foregrounded the process of thinking."

Sea of Death: Sea of Death (Portuguese: Mar Morto) is a Brazilian Modernist novel written by Jorge Amado.  Amado wrote the novel in response to his first arrest for "being a communist".  The novel follows the lives of poor fishermen around Bahia, and their relationship with the Afro-Brazilian religion Candomblé, especially the sea goddess Iemanjá.  The novel's style and themes include many traits that characterize Amado's later work.
