Need a review on a classic piece of literature? The Sound and the Fury? Or maybe Lord of the Flies is more your style? These are my classic book reviews.
The story of a troubled individual following the troubled path of existentialism down a slippery hole.
A love affair breaks out between a man and his 12-year-old step-daughter. Bringing controversy from every direction, this is Lolita.
An existential novel dealing with the cruelties and improbabilities of the rational man.
The End of the Affair is an extraordinary book that deals with the emotions brought on by the feeling of love, and the falling out of love. These are two polarising emotions that can either drive us forward or halt us in our tracks.
Lord of the Flies is a book that examines the shadier side of human nature, the savage brutality of even the most civilised groups.
What does Shakespear’s Macbeth have to do with William Faulkner? How do you deal with fractured stories resembling different periods of one’s life?

Pale Fire is an innovative book that has changed literature in many ways, none more so than the use of character commentary and interpretation.
