List three books that have had an impact on you. Why?
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. It inspired me to be a writer. It was a beautifully written piece of literature originally published under the name Ellis Bell. Bronte’s character development and the intrigue of this novel, especially written by a woman in 1847 was none other than miraculous.
The Second Sex by Simone De Bouvoir because it was a book that enlightened me to sexual inequalities. I also went through an existential period in my life.
Native Son by Richard Wright. I went to a fairly affluent all white school. This book had a profound impact on my understanding and abhorring racial bias.
