I have loads of favourites...but these top the list:
Khalil Gibran: The Prophet
Albert Camus: The Stranger and A Happy Death
Oscar Wilde: Anything and Everything by Wilde ---I love the man's wit!
V.S.Naipul: A House for Mr. Biswas and A Bend In The River
Somerset Maugham: The Razor's Edge and Of Human Bondage (Human Bondage is morbid but brilliant)
Zadie Smith: White Teeth
As far as Ayn Rand is concerned, I loved the horribly tormented character of Howard Rork in Fountainhead, but her theory of Objectivism to me, is a little too far fetched. I think I like "We the living" far more than I do either Atlas Shrugged or Fountainhead.
