Orwell is great, but I haven't brought myself to read his lesser known books and I have only read 2 of his major ones (which I consider to be Homage to Catalonia, 1984, Animal Farm, and Down and out in Paris and London)

Orwell also had a book called "The Road to Wigan Pier" about the conditions coal miners in Northern England had to work in. Then there's "Burmese Days" and a few others whose names I forget.

Primo Levi! Now, there's a name you don't hear so often nowadays...

Right now, it's Stephen King. Six months ago, it was Alex Garland. And before everything else, there was Tolkien...
