I don't like Paulo Coelho. There. I said it. I liked 'Zahir' and that's about it. Extreme spirituality gives me indigestion. Besides, I don't like the whiny prose either.
Kundera is better. Only slightly. He's more objective about the whining.
I like Shashti Brata. Especially 'Confessions of an Indian Woman Eater'. Also, 'My God Died Young'. I like the irreverence.
I read Rebecca (Finally!). I didn't like the story, or the too-detailed prose.
I still like Poe. I don't like Ayn Rand. But I liked 'Anthem'.
I like Jeanette Winterson.
I don't like obscure prose merely because it's obscure.
I want to read good fiction.
Any suggestions from my random visitors?

the witch of portobello was highly annoying. the whole god is the earth is a woman thing is stooopid. but the alchemist was a good read. or maybe i just like anything moroccan.
for good artistic flow - white oleander by janet fitch and of course, memoirs of a geisha.
