Presented books are kept in suspense not just until the last moment, but also a very long time after you have already read them. They tell of the difficult choice of the main characters who are forced to fight the reality. These stories make us look at our world quite different eyes.

We offer 10 incredibly deep books that can change the worldview.

  1. George Orwell - "1984"
    Orwell's novel about the terrible future, first published in 1949, became a classic anti-utopian genre. In the book for the first time there is the idea of ​​the existence of the Big Brother and the concept of a totalitarian regime that still retains no less relevance arises.

  2. William Golding - "The Lord of the Flies"

  5. Franz Kafka - "The Process"
    Kafka wrote the novel "The Process" throughout 1914-1915, but the book was published only in 1925, after the death of the writer. This is a unique story about the employee of the bank, Josef K., who was arrested for no apparent reason. The hero struggles to find out what he is accused of, but in vain.

  6. Ray Bradbury -
    "451 degrees Fahrenheit"

  7. John Kennedy Thule -
    "Collusion of dunces"

  8. Joseph Heller - "Amendment-22"
    The classic story of Joseph Heller about the loss of faith and sanity as bureaucratic power grows. Captain Yossarian serves in Italy in a bomber regiment during the Second World War. But his main enemy is not the Nazis, but his army. The scorer is in a desperate situation because of "Dodge-22", which does not allow him to leave the service.

  9. Mitch Albom - "Tuesdays with Morrie"
    "Tuesdays with Morrie" is a touching story about Mitch Albom and his mentor Morrey Schwartz. Many of us part with their mentors, and their ideas are slowly erased from our memory. But Mitch has a second chance to meet his professor of sociology, who has only a few months left to live.

  10. Tim O'Brien -
    "The things they carried with them"

Hey, you might want to check the titles on those books. The Process, for instance, is known as The Trial in English. And Amendment-22 is called Catch 22. Otherwise, great list. I've read most of them, and will look up the remaining ones. Thanks.

Great list -- I always find it hard to narrow the gap to 10, but you've done well.

I suppose 5 out of 10 on the list isn't so bad...considering I haven't read a book since I got my first computer...what...25 yrs ago now.

I'm waiting for novels in pill form. ;-)

hi. I had included your post in this compilation to share with more people 😃
