Oliver Twist is such a good one, but also Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men and Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird. I used to dread reading classics for Literature class, but looking back now, those were some great reads. Definitely timeless works of art.

I always loved all of Jane Austen's books when I was younger; but as I've got older I've started to appreciate Persuasion more than I did when I was younger. It's one of the books she wrote later on in her life, and I think that is part of why I can appreciate it even more as I've got a bit older myself. I think it's an often overlooked classic, and not the first that springs to mind when people think about her work.

Oh gosh if we are going with literature classics?? I'm so all over the place with what I consider a classic. Now if we are talking science fiction classics, I could easily talk your ear off. But I can absolutely agree with Nabokov. Anything by Nabokov has a way to be simultaneously beautiful and Disturbing and unnerving

To Kill a Mockingbird

Crime and Punishment by fyodor dostoyevsky! A very dense book but a really insightful one nevertheless!

There’s more than I can think of at the moment, but I’ve really enjoyed To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, and The Nose by Nikolai Gogol, just to name a few.
