Does anybody have short stories or novellas written by women that aren't trite? I have to crank out a short but meaningful personal response to a piece of literature specifically written by a woman and I cannot for the life of me find any that speak to me at all. To be specific, I relate well to books which have some kind of allegorical statement to be made, something which I have found sorely lacking in female literature. Books like Lord of the Flies, Animal Farm, Brave new world and Nineteen Eighty Four are what I mean.

I want to say Flannery O'Connor but you might not like her because you're taste is awfully juvenile

I realize this is a fiction, but I must ask this fiction, what the hell are you even doing in school? You have no business reading literature at all, really. You should be out ploughing the fields or picking up garbage. Learning is not for those of your type. Which is fine, but as it is you are perpetrating an abomination.

Not OP, but what?
You may not realize it but you sound retarded.

maybe you should read more before tackling women writers
they're emotional complexity WILL be off-putting to you

Lord of the Flies is actually great though, especially as intro lit.

La mare au diable, Georges Sand

It's a cute little story.
