In fact, also loved 'The Queen and I' by the same.'A Clockwork Orange'- Anthony Burgess, 'The Crooked Line' and the many short stories by Ismat Chughtai. The short stories of Isaac Asimov have been revisited too many times to count. 'Girl, Interrupted' by Sussana Kaysen and Sylvia Plath's 'The Bell Jar' are both searing novels. Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights' moved me as did Tehmina Durrani's 'Blasphemy' and Nathaniel Hawthorne's 'The Scarlet Letter'. Margaret Mitchell's 'Gone With the Wind' and Donald McCaig's 'Rhett Butler's People' are intense.

I also have tremendous respect for Tennessee Williams' 'A Streetcar Named Desire' and 'The Glass Menagerie.' Truman Capote's 'Other Voices, Other Rooms' and Harper Lee's 'To Kill A Mockingbird' are fantastic. I enjoy all of Phillipa Gregory and Jude Morgan's works; Patrick Suskind's 'Perfume' is another breathtaking novel as are Chitra Banerjee-Divakaruni's 'Palace of Illusions' and 'The Mistress of Spices.' Anything by William Faulkner and Ernest Hemingway immediately finds my admiration.
