Roots by Alex Haley
Uncle Tom's Cabin
One flew over the cuckoo's nest - Harper Lee
My Experiments with Truth - M.K. Gandhi [Mahatma Gandhi's anecdotal autobiography mainly of his earlier years]
Black Beauty by Anna Sewell
Silas Marner - Thomas Hardy
short stories by O Henry, Guy de Maupassant, Stephen Leacock
Childhood by Maxim Gorky [ it's actually his autobiography - a set of 3 books. unfortunately, i've only read this first one & really enjoyed it]
