However, reading some of the lesser known works sometimes sets your idyllic authors up for failure. When I read 'The Winter of Our Discontent' as well as 'Travels with Charley' by Steinbeck, I felt strongly that these were some of those works.

Sometimes I find hidden gems, and as one blogger put it, finding such a gem is like having a secret connection with a writer that only you know about. From an American literature standpoint, I hold two writers on a pedestal: Ernest Hemingway and John Steinbeck.īecause these are two of my favourite authors, I tend to read more of their obscure work after I have picked over some of their more well-known literature. There are some authors whom I read which I feel can do no wrong everything I read that they have published is truly brilliant and I feel such a connection for the writing, the characters and the general feel of their works.
