I really like sad books, realistic fiction. I am currently working on "Sophie's Choice" and I just finished "the heart is a lonely hunter." do you have any suggestions of what to read next?

A Widow for One Year by John Irving is good and sad. A lot of his books are sad and funny at the same time.
I Know This Much is True by Wally Lamb is a good Oprah book.

You might like Cane River, by Lalita Tademy. I think it may be an Oprah book club book - its very good.

Check out some of John Steinbeck's books, they are all heart wrenching (although the settings might seem dated).
