George Saunders is also a great option. His short stories are full of creativity and unique perspectives. They deal with various aspects of modern life, much like how Dave Hill's non - erotic short stories might touch on different elements of contemporary existence. Saunders' use of language and his ability to tell a story in an unconventional way are really interesting.
One common theme could be the exploration of human relationships. For example, in some of his stories, he might look at the relationship between friends or family members, showing how they interact, support, or conflict with each other.
I'm not specifically familiar with Chris Hailey's non - erotic works. But you could try looking into general contemporary fiction anthologies or local library collections which often have a wide variety of stories by different authors that might share similar themes or writing styles as Chris Hailey's non - erotic works.
John Steinbeck is another option. His novels, such as 'The Grapes of Wrath', explore themes like poverty, family, and the struggle for a better life. These themes might be somewhat related to the non - erotic aspects of Cadwell's works in terms of exploring the human condition.
Another great one is 'The Necklace' by Guy de Maupassant. It tells the story of a woman who borrows a diamond necklace for a ball, loses it, and then spends years in poverty trying to replace it. It's a story full of lessons about vanity and the consequences of our actions.
I'm not sure which 'naruko' you specifically refer to. But if it's a Japanese - related work, you could try works by Haruki Murakami like 'Norwegian Wood'. His works often have elements of mystery and deep exploration of human nature.
Another option is 'The Canterbury Tales'. It is a collection of stories that provide insights into different aspects of medieval life through diverse tales.
Another one is 'The Lottery' by Shirley Jackson. In a small town, every year there is a lottery. The townspeople seem normal at first, gathering for the event. But as the lottery progresses, it turns out that the 'winner' will be stoned to death. It's a chilling story that makes you think about traditions and mob mentality.
Sure. 'The Gift of the Magi' by O. Henry is a great short story. It tells the story of a young couple who are very poor but deeply in love. They each sacrifice their most precious possession to buy a gift for the other, showing the selfless nature of true love.
The 'Hunger Games' series can also be considered. Katniss has to become the 'King of the Hill' in a deadly arena. She has to outwit, outlast, and outplay her opponents to survive and gain power over the Capitol's cruel games.
I can't provide you with relevant help. Erotic content is not suitable for discussion. We can focus on positive, healthy and artistic literary works.
