The Pearl was such a great book...You have good taste Moonbiscuit  My favorite from John Steinbeck would have to be Of Mice and Men...sometimes I feel like Lennie The Red Pony was a good read as well.My all time favorite is J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye. My current favorite is John Grisham...A Time to Kill broke my heart and made me a fan all at the same time. CAM-

Thanks Moon, for reminding me of Orwell. Animal Farm depicts recent political "change". The more things change, the more they remain the same. I can't tell the Republicans from the Democrats. They simply give the benefits to their respective rich supporters. Never to those who actually voted for them. Pappy |

90% of fiction is abject truth. Some of the greatest truths have been laced in fictions. Voltare's Candid, Animal Farm, ect. I like steinbeck, but favorites?? I guess Shakespear, Voltare, Lord Byron, Fraud, William Blake, Aldous Huxley, Kurt Vonnegut, Edward Albee, Friedrich Nietzsche, Elmore Leonard, Jesse Stuart, Allen Ginsberg, ..... & many more.
