What should I read next ? (a familiar question)

[HZTB]

Hi, I

[Kate]

I think The Great Gatsby would be a good one to start with

[HZTB]

Thanks, although I've already read it, it's in my list.

I suggest you add To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. It is definitely one of the greatest American novels and is not to be missed. It's one of my top favorites. You won't be disappointed!

[Kell]

Well, from the ones you haven't yet read, I'd go with either The Remains of the Day, Kazuo Ishiguro or Moby-Dick, Melville.

[HZTB]

Thank you nursenblack, I'll make sure to read it

[Freewheeling Andy]

I would say Heart of Darkness. I'm still undecided years after reading it, whether I really enjoyed it, or really didn't. But given the kinds of stuff you like, I'd think you'd find it interesting and worthwhile precisely because it's that kind of book.

 

A propos playing with conventions - if you've not read Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell or A Debt To Pleasure by John Lanchester, they may well be up your street.
