For next class we are to have a list of books we have read and want to redesign the cover for. This simple list was incredibly challenging for me to come up with. I don't ever make time to sit down and read for fun anymore and trying to remember the titles of books that I was required to read for class was a mental obstacle course. In addition, some of my top choices of books have recently/are being made in to a movie which is against criteria:
Life of Pi,
Kite Runner, and
The Great Gatsby. I guess I just need to read more unpopular books. So here is what I've come up with as far as options go:
Storyteller by
Leslie Marmon Silko (a collection of Native American tales and experiences)
Their Eyes Were Watching God by
Zora Neale Hurston (an inspirational Black fictional literature)
Angela's Ashes by
Frank McCourt (an Irish identity story about the author)
Faust by
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (a German classic novel about witchcraft)
Undine by
Friedrich de la Motte Fouque (a German novella about supernatural beings)
