Among the contemporary writers, I also read recently 'Salem falls' by Jodi Picoult. What I liked about her is: she does not expose only the evils of the society; she also shows our strengths right next to our frailties.

Too many plot contrivances, too many continuity errors. Not the work of someone with a creative writing degree from Princeton. I couldn't finish it, which is nigh unheard-of for me.
Salem Falls is definitely my favourite book by Picoult thus far.

As the other books by Jodi Picoult, this is anot...
