What is Your Favorite Work of Fiction?
What is your favorite work of fiction? I would have to say that Stephen King's The Green Mile is probably my favorite. In novel form, on CD and on the silver screen, I have to say that it is all around one of the better stories ever put to paper. It seems no matter what medium is used to tell this story, it always plays well.
What do you all think? Whats your favorite work of fiction? |

Many of Stephen kings books rank up there (movie adaptations do not count). Then I have always had a soft spot for Robert Heinlein's Number of the beast as well as Clive Barkers Imajica and the Yattering and Jack.
Ok Clive Barker is really a shame. He writes great thought provoking stories yet Hollywood will not let him develop his books to film to let him get the attention he deserves unless its Hellraiser part 98 first, and then they will give him a tiny budget to do a different story.

One of my favorites as well...but Catcher in the rye also falls in there..so does Hollywood by Bukowski, which is a not so subtle work of fiction based on his experiences making Barfly.

Jim The Fiends life story.
Come on, somebody had to say it ![]() Seriously, I like the whole romantic thing around the Raj etc - EM Forster is great. If I have to go modern then King or Grisham. |

Yet does this mean that he will have to release yet another hellraiser or some updated version of hellraiser? No it is not a joke, I am serious it seems as if he wants to make any movie he must make someone a hellraiser flick.

I enjoy reading non-fiction more than fiction, however, here are some of my favorites in no particular order:
Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo The Jungle by Upton Sinclair The Naked and the Dead by Norman Mailer The World According to Garp by John Irving Hawaii by James Michener Lost Horizon by James Hilton Cannery Row by John Steinbeck The Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles Sometimes A Great Notion by Ken Kesey On the Road by Jack Kerouac Steppenwolf by Herman Hesse (also Siddhartha) No Exit by Jean-Paul Sarte There are many, many more... I regret that I don't read complete novels as much as I did when I was younger, however I am still a voracious reader - I just do most of my reading online, and prefer shorter essays and articles these days.
