The Misanthrope - Moliere

Death of a Salesman - Arthur Miller

Major Barbara - Bernard Shaw

Long Day's Journey into Night - Eugene O'Neill

Lots of Death of a Salesman around... that's interesting.

And lots of people lost or "hating" Heart of Darkness... hehe I know how you feel, it is a horrible work. However, I always found lots of things to write about. Just let your imagination free. If you get weird ideas, they probably DO make sense in the context, because it IS a weird story =P

Heart of Darkness--J Conrad

1984--G Orwell

The Handmaid's Tale--M Atwood

The God of Small Things--A Roy

WL:

Szymborska poetry

Like Water for Chocolate

So Long a Letter (out of print)

God of Small Things.. got to be one of the most interesting books I've ever read, once I autocensored some things.... Roy's style is so unique... I love how she writes circularly.

The Handmaid's Tale (Atwood)

The Fifth child (Lessing)
