With the addition of support for sourcing projects from Faded Page in the latest updates to the SE toolset, I'd like to propose Cakes and Ale, by W. Somerset Maugham, published in 1930.

OK! Make sure to include the subtitle in the metadata. Please send a
link to your repo once you start.

It was always possible to use Faded Page transcriptions, you just had to
do it by hand.
