I agree with the gentleman above on Animal Farm by George Orwell. Also, Don't Stop the Carnival by Herman Wouk and The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway.

Cry to heaven by Anne Rice....Spartacus by Howard Fast(outlawed during the Mccarthy era).....The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas, who also wrote the Three Musketeers & The man in the iron mask.....The Thornbirds by Colleen McCullough...brilliant book.....The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck (An amazing classic) & The Good Earth by Pearl Buck, lastly A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by betty Smith.
There, many classics and page turners for you!!! I have read all of these and in some cases multiple times!!! I really hope that this helps you!!! Spartacus will blow your mind. It had to be released in England as the McCarthy era had Howard fast black balled when it was written.
I hope that you read Cry to heaven by Anne Rice...it is NOT about vampires, but about the Italian Castrati, thus it is truth intermixed with fiction, rather historical fiction....
Happy reading!!!!! I gave y usome of my top faves here!!
Thanks,
Lioncourt

I LIKE MEAVE BINCHY BOOKS. I AM NOT IRISH BUT I LIKE THE WAY SHE EXPRESSES THE NORMAL DAILY LIFE OF THE IRISH PEOPLE. AND ONE BOOK WHEN YOU READ IT IS ACTUALLY CONNECTED TO THE OTHER IN TERMS OF SURROUNDING, SOCIETY ETC
