Re: Literature as Spiritual Study

Ok, this thread got buried and I am attempting to see what we might envision our 21st century literary greats may be…

I hesitate to add Harry Potter, unless he is classified Childrens Lit, which is not to demean the work, but it is not the same genre as some other are… 

Perhaps, Paulo Coelho? The Alchemist et al?

What are your thoughts about his work?

Another that comes to mind is: Jhumpa Lahiri: interpreter of Maladies.
