Some of the group's favorites:

Death of a Murderer by Rupert Thomson. British constable Billy Tyler is assigned to guard the body of a deceased (and notorious) murderer, awaiting burial. His evening with the body yields a host of memories and raises some complex moral questions about the nature of evil and guilt.

Blindness by Jose Saramago. A dramatic and thrilling portrait of a world gone blind, by Nobel Prize winner Saramago.

Fieldwork by Mischa Berlinski. An American ex-pat in Thailand investigates the suicide of an anthropologist and her relationship with a missionary family.
