- Shirley Hazzard - Transit of Venus
- Mary Gaitskill - Veronica
- Jeanette Winterson - The Passion
- Jonathan Franzen - The Corrections
- Michael Pollen - The Botany of Desire

- Margaret Atwood - The Handmaid’s Tale
- Marilyn Robinson - Housekeeping
- Nuala O’Faolain - I Dream of You
Try them or comment. What are your favorites? Always looking for new reads, though I have 2 stacks on my table ready to go.
