Great Book Titles

[Srbo]

We all read a lot of books, right?
What are some of the great book TITLES you can remember? I mean, for instance many of us read everything by Stephen King, even something absurdly called Cujo. WTH is Cujo,( if you didn`t know beforehand).
I started reading Harlan Coben cause I saw his book titled " Tell No One". Man, it was such a great title that I didn`t care what it was about, I just simply bought the book without even so much as glancing at the flap description.
Other great titles that come to mind:
- For Whom The Bell Tolls - Ernest Hemingway
- And the Mountains Echoed - Khaled Hosseini
- The Name of the Rose - Umberto Ecco
- The Unbearable Lightness of Being - Milan Kundera
- The Lord of the Rings - JRR Tolkien
and my personal all time favorite, one that just SCREAMS at you : READ ME, DAMMIT:
- The Silence of the Lambs - Thomas Harris

That`s just a few for now...how about you?

Love and lights.

Just looking at my book case: Pushing Ice, The Turn of the Screw, Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence, In the Springtime of the Year, The Chemistry of Tears.

King has always been exceptional when it comes to titling his works. All of them are memorable and it's easy to see why he has become something of a brand.

Red Storm Rising by Tom Clancy....reading that title in my local library in 1987 while the cold war was still on.....I thought "wow, that sounds ominous".....what a great book that was and still is.
