Literary Circle Project: Book Choices

The Stranger by Albert Camus is my top choice. On a scale from 1 to 10 I would give this book a 9. I enjoy reading detective novels that involve murder mystery stories. But this book is not a banal example of this particular genre. The protagonist in this books struggles with his identity and his beliefs. He lacks passion in his life and he doesn’t understand how people can function in this meaningless world. I believe that it is a very interesting option.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead by Tom Stoppard is a book that I really wanted to read after finishing Hamlet by William Shakespeare. It would be very interesting to read a book with characters that you already know about. On a scale from 1 to 10 I would give this book a 7.

Night by Elie Wiesel is also an interesting option. Its about living during Holocaust, and I’m very passionate about this topic, because my grandfather was a WWII veteran. I believe that it would be good to remind myself  one more time about what happened during that time period. On a scale from 1 to 10 I would give this book a 6.5.
