Took a gander at a book list from Julia Roberts on Oprah.com, and here are a few that made a difference to her:



The Wild Palms
By William Faulkner

An Imaginative Woman
By Thomas Hardy

The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter
By Carson McCullers

The Academy Award winning actress, soon to start filming "August: Osage County" alongside stars Meryl Streep and Juliette Lewis in Bartlesville in Pawhuksa told O Magazine in 2001 that certain books came into her life at just the point they needed to,"in such a way that I can't help but think, 'This is the perfect time for me to be reading this.'"
