It’s a 60’s novel written by Harper Lee who made it a paramount read pointing to the dilemma of social injustice, hatred, and prejudice. The book holds the prestige of getting translated into 40 different languages and 30 million sale count around the globe.
It covers the story of a six years old Jean Louis Finch whose father is a lawyer, fighting for a black man to prove him innocent over a false rape case of a white lady. The title itself tells it all, that a mocking bird is innocent, then why take its life for nothing but a temporary temptation?
3. The Forty Rules Of Love
If we name it magic, it won’t be wrong. Elif Shafak’s mystic storytelling has unwrapped two epic tales, one covering another. The cover story is of a housewife Ella Rubenstein, who comes to read a novel entitled “Sweet Blasphemy” as her assignment at a literary agency. Sweet Blasphemy has forty rules of true and passionate love narrated by a Sufi Saint Shams Tabriz which he addressed during the events he went through while his voyage to Konya. It’s a beautiful story of a thirteenth-century poet “Rumi” and Shams friendship, teaching the readers compassion and purity of a relation, and how we all are connected to the divine God.
Ella finds herself getting compelled towards the novel as well as the author who is anonymous and finds a way to flirt with him through e-mail. Before she was a miserable poor housewife being cheated on by her husband, as she starts relating the events of the characters in the book, she experiences serenity and a pause. You’ll experience the same because it’s a symbol of true love, empathy, and humanity; claiming that God resides in every heart.
4. Pride And Prejudice
This one from Jane Austen always joins the table when we talk about the best universal books of all time. The author has drawn a coupling of a well-off landowner and the country gentleman’s daughter. Both of them think through the opposite poles of the ground and they have to keep etiquettes prior to their fluctuating relationship. It’s a classic romantic story portrayed with great character silhouettes.
5. The Power Of Now
You might have heard many times in life, “Now is the time”. Before reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, I used to think it’s a myth, as many of us do not give this sentence a second thought to implement it into our lives. You’ll surely change your perspective after giving this one a read. It’s a self-help guide to practice spirituality by simply harnessing the power of presence from within. Beautifully depicted script patterned in a frame of questions and answers that might arise in your minding while reading it. It’s an international bestseller that can reshape your thinking patterns, adding a whole new joyous perspective to see life and its elements.
