Can't decide what book to read for a critical analysis essay?
I have to pick a book off of a list for an LA cirtical analysis essay. The only problem is, I can't decide which book! I've narrowed it down to a few, but I just can't seem to pick.
The books I've narrowed it down to are: A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess, The Stranger by Albert Camus, The Plague by Albert Camus, The Inferno by Dante, or The Turn of the Screw by Henry James.
I really enjoy reading books that are rather deep and almost somewhat disturbing/dark/etc. I was just wondering if I could get some opinions on these books and which one do you think would be most interesting/contains darker elements. So if anyone has read any of these and can give me some opinions, I would greatly appreciate it (: Thanks!

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
I highly recommend both A Clockwork Orange and Dante's Inferno. The first is just a good book, the second is a fairly historical piece of literature that I think anyone who is interested in reading things should read at least once.

I've read "The Stranger" in both English and French, and I really enjoyed it both times. I'd really recommend it if you're looking for a darker, deeper novel. It's a great book and I think you'd enjoy it!
I haven't read any of the others, so I really can't give too much insight there. I've heard positive feedback on A Clockwork Orange, but again, I haven't read any of the others myself.
