zepterman Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 (edited) Hello, please, recommend me a book! A genre of book should not be - detective, love romance, humor, religion, philosophy, mysticism, historical romance, war. Perhaps, science fiction and horror can be presented in a book, but not as the main idea or theme (not Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings). It is desirable that book does not have happy end. I am interested in a book, which makes you wonder about something, call into question the generally accepted rules and norms of behavior. The end of the book is not so important than its content. I like these books: Veronika Decides To Die Catcher In The Rye Of Mice And Men Fight Club Lord Of The Flies I like these films: Up In The Air Thank You For Smoking Das Experiment American Beauty K-PAX Easy Rider Vanilla Sky Falling Down Thank you in advance!

~Andrea~ Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Have you read any George Orwell? Richard Adams The girl in a Swing is an interesting book, although I'm not sure it strictly meets your requirements.

poppy Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 A few suggestions ..... One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest by Ken Kelsey To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck I Know This Much Is True by Wally Lamb In Cold Blood by Truman Capote All thought provoking books in my opinion.
