Subject: [CASL-L] Book Recommendations Needed!

 

Good morning!  My 12th grade English teachers are starting a unit in May - they will be giving the students free choice to choose a novel written by a non-American/non-British authors.  

 

I have a list going already - but it looks a little...boring!

 

Can anyone send me some great fiction that fits the author category?  Basically any author who isn't American or British!

 

 

Thank you!
