Default Any thoughts?
On the epistolary novel? Any good suggestions for a really good one set in modern times?

All the epistolary novels I come across seem to be 19th century creations....any thoughts on modern ones?

Modern? Not many I'd say.

Taught a book called "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" but it's not great to be honest.

It ain't your Liasons Dangereuses like

I've always suspected that most people who write in the epistolary style are just plain afraid to write 'traditional' prose. Now, I could be wrong.

Though I haven't read it, The Prestige by Christopher priest is supposed to be good. I liked the film a lot. And it's got Tesla.

I didn't know what you meant and I couldn't be bothered looking it up.
