1984
George Orwell
Haunting. The appendix on Newspeak is a stroke of genius that most people skip but shouldn't.
Dracula
Bram Stoker
The Count as a metaphor for colonialism in reverse - the East invading the West. Layers upon layers.
The great gatsby
F. Scott Fitzgerald
So we beat on, boats against the current. That final line is perfection.
A Feast for Crows
George R. R. Martin
Watching Cersei self-destruct is darkly satisfying. Her paranoia and incompetence are drawn with precision.
Frankenstein o el Prometeo moderno
Mary Shelley
Victor Frankenstein is the real monster. His cowardice and selfishness cause every tragedy in the book.
Jane Eyre
Charlotte Brontë
Rochester is a complex and sometimes frustrating character, which is exactly what makes him work.
Moby Dick
Herman Melville
This book contains everything - adventure, philosophy, humor, horror, and the deepest meditation on obsession ever written.
Don Quixote
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
A love letter to reading and imagination. Quixote's madness is really just an excess of idealism.
