Topic: What Book Am I?

Posted by: kaddarsgirl

Subject: What Book Am I?
Date: Sep 02 12

This works like the movie and people threads. You ask yes/no questions, and the person who correctly guesses the book gets to pick the next one.

Books can be either fiction or non-fiction, must be classified as a novel or novella. This means no plays, poems, or short stories.

I will begin with:

What book am I?

The old reply to thread function was removed because it got to the point where people weren't even reading the announcements and assuming, by default, that they were somehow being wronged or forgotten or insulted or abused or cheated out of something in some manner.

Have more than one of your books been made into movies?

And/or was one of your books made into a musical?

Reply #627. Oct 10 12, 2:33 PM

adams627 The novel itself has not been made into a movie.

Yes, it was written after 1975.

Yes, although this novel (arguably the most famous of its author, perhaps tied with a later work) was never made into a movie, other works by this author were. No musicals that I can find, though.

A minor plot clue--the protagonist's son in this novel plays chess with a convicted criminal, via mail.
