American Literature at the Movies: The Books - Page 2

We've pioneered a certain type of literature in America: the cinematic novel. "Gone with the Wind," for example, is just a dense script treatment, and I think teen dystopian romances are optioned to Hollywood before they hit Kindle. Here are just 100 American books that have been made into movies. Did the book inspire you to watch the movie, or did the movie inspired you to read the book?
