Any recomendations on similar books like 1984, breakfast of champions, ayn rand anthem...thank you

Anything by Camus, Sartre, or Beauvoir. For American writers, I'd pick up Langston Hughes works, Wright's Native Son, and Herman Melville's Moby Dick.

In English, try:

Kurt Vonnegut's "Player Piano."
Philip Roth's "The Plot Against America."

[Mujer Libre]

The Dispossessed by Ursula K. le Guin.

hmm i actually really dislike books like 1984, not because it's badly written, but its only good to get depressed

[Pawn Power]

those books you listed arn't very similar to each other...

as for Breakfast of Champions...anything else by vonnegute is good, try the others with Kilgore Trout like Time Quake and Slaughterhouse-5.

also, mark twain

Swastika Night, I forget by whom, but it's fantastic and very much like 1984 - written by a communist contemporary of George Orwell, from what I recall it's a Left Book Club publication. Type it into amazon - I doubt you'll be disappointed.
