I'm doing a music video and the song is about a stalker. There's going to be a scene in the video with a girl reading and I'd like to have her holding some book that is thematically related to stalking. I'm a non-fiction guy myself so I need help with this. Thought someone on here might be able. Thanks.
The Collector by John Fowles might be a good one.
Nabokov's Lolita perhaps?
Tess from Tess of the d'Urbervilles had a stalker, sort of. At least she had a man who wouldn't leave her alone.
I'd second this one. I think there was a serial killer that claimed that this book inspired him. If you just want a book to be seen in your video then I think this is the one to go for.Quote:

Nabakov's Pale Fire, but it is about a famous poet who is stalked by his fan/colleague/neighbor, not a girl being stalked by a man.
I may call Florentino Ariza (Love in the Time of Cholera/Marquez) kind of a stalker.
Definitely The Collector. Also, Perfume by Suskind is a good one as well.
