Stemming from my boredom last summer and inbetween law study i have been ploughing my way through them, some for the first time, some for a re-read. However, my stockpile is running low but my book vouchers are still there so i would like your ideas on where to go from here. I appreciate that there is a 'what are you reading thread' but i would like to keep this solely to 'the classics' as it were. If you feel that there is some debate on whether it is a classic then just pop it in anyways. The only thing i ask is that there be a readily avaliable English translation and also under the assumption that I could only ever read one book per author, which do you believe is their greatest work. Here is what i've got through in the past few months, if i remeber i'll try and update this post to reflect any contributions. Dante- Divine Trilogy Chaucer- the Canterbury Tales Beowulf Cicero-on Government Plato- Republic Dostoyevsky- Crime and Punishment Homer- Illiad Homer- Odyssey Virgil- Aenid __________________ If olive oil comes from olives, where does baby oil come from?

Wow! yep might take a bit of time to get through, especially considering i already have to read the equivalent of 7 books a week. Any recommendations of just one book from each author? (pretend i coud only ever read one of their books)

So if you want to read some Tolstoy but don't feel like diving into a 493969349629436 page novel, try his short stories/novellas. The Death of Ivan Ilych, The Kreutzer Sonata, and The Hadji Murad are Fifty's favorites. ~Fifty __________________ VISIT #FIFTYCHAT! CLICK HERE! ITS THE MOST ACTIVE CFC-RELATED CHATROOM!!!

I'd recommend you read at least The Kreutzer Sonata and The Death of Ivan Ilych. They are very different, but both short. Both could be read in a couple hours. And almost any book you buy or borrow with one in it will have the other. Hadji Murad is good too but if I had to choose two it would be the ones I mentioned. Although, I've heard it said that if you really want to understand the issues with Russia and Chechnya you can learn all there really is to learn via Hadji Murad!

The Bennets crack me up (P&P). My wife also makes me watch things like Places in the Heart and Steel Magnolias. But I've tricked her into Dune, The Keep and Highlander. Sorry, this is about classic literature, right? I'd like to mention On the Origin of Species, by Charles Darwin. __________________ Hobbs is officially not on my Ignore List.
