We asked our regular contributors through e-mail, If authors ‘covered’ novels, the way musicians cover songs, which covered novel would you be most excited to read? We got many interesting responses. Here are some of them. We have just copied and pasted their responses, not editing them in any way and most of the respondents have requested to stay anonymous, so no names will be published.
