You have the dubious honor of residing in Westeros. I say dubious because while your world is very intense at times, and has tons of cool-yet-mostly-generic noble houses and knights and evil Others, it is also sophisticated and very, very real. Main characters have no innate protection against untimely death. None at all. Protagonists drop like flies. In fact, the only characters who die more often than protagonists are... everyone else. That's right. You'll starve, be raped, dismembered, frozen to death, or thrown off a thousand foot precipice. If you're lucky you'll just have your face split in two by an axe and live to tell the tale. But it's sure going to be fun for us to read about.

I've been reading E.M. Forster for my British Literature II course and I think I've found a writer that I need to dive into headfirst.
No puns intended.
He wrote "A Passage to India" and other novels during the early-mid 1900s. He was also a short story writer and it was one of his short stories, "A Life to Come", that really got me interested in his work.
The story focuses on a missionary and his homosexual relationship with a native chief he converts to Christianity. The chief views Christianity as love and acceptance and the missionary ends up becoming a hypocrite and a cruel overlord when the native society is converted to Christianity. It's a beautiful tale of duality that I highly recommend.
Fantastic story...I wish I could write half as good as writers like Forster.
