It's hard to have a favourite author when you've read so many great books. I don't have one favourite. 1 Like |

Stephen King for sure. I love his creativity in writing horror. From IT, The Shining, Carrie, Pet Cementary, The Green Mile and many more. The guy is a legend in horror! |

Mastakija: Please no, it's not tribalism. I'm just being honest, no longer at ease is a drag. But IMO, although things fall apart is better than all Soyinka's works, Wole Soyinka is a far better writer than Achebe, and I'm igbo. 1 Like |

seanwilliam: Lol, we did back in school. We had a teacher that explains it well line by line. And there is a series of Shakespeare's publication that translates it to modern English language at the left hand side, I have forgotten the name but I read lots and lots of Shakespeare, take it or leave it. |

SlimChay: Lol, it's just your opinion, intelligence is relative. Some people will see it as a way to expand the topic and make it more interesting, others will get provoked. Some of the Greats and their works that we celebrate now were not appreciated in their own time because people saw them as clowns, but now we regard them as genius. Take for example Vincent Van Gogh and the Velvet Underground. 1 Like |

GabrielYulaw: I guess you have the impression I'm a kid or indomie generation the way you talk down to me...( I find your comment offensive by the way).. And for the record, l was 46 in May.. I read my first novel (James Hardly Chase) in 1985 when l was in primary 6..Had to hide it from my dad because the rauchy picture of the model in lingerie on the cover page would make my dad think it was porn.. So, l know what I'm talking Novels were and still are my things.. |
