When I wrote this I hadn't read the second book yet. I'm midway in it now, and it's very dark and brutal - more than the first one. Still very good, but it's something to be aware of.

The Longest Australian novel ever written, "Poor Fellow My Country," by Xavier Herbert. This is the longest Australian novel ever written at 850,000 words (1,463 pages.)
But...I have yet to read it. |

A wonderfully poetic literary novel (that I HAVE read): Miss Macintosh, My Darling, by Marguerite Young. This was recently re-released by Dalky Archive Press.
Another writer I enjoy, but off hand I don't know if they are 800 (or more) pages: William Gaddis. I recommend these two titles: JR and The Recognitions. He, too, is a literary writer, creating prose of the highest quality. Many would classify him (as I do) as an author firmly entrenched in postmodernism. -- Highly recommended, especially if you enjoy literary novels that challenge the status quo. |

Although 'only' 728 pages [PDF version], The House of Leaves, by Mark Z. Danielewski, might be of interest.
I have not read this one. |

Actually it does count especially if can be bought as a physical book. B&N has a few such as the Foundation series in one book. its expensive but they have it. |
