boeken to Read Antwoorden

I've read a lot of classics and I've enjoyed most of them but I'll try to enumerate the best - the must-read ones (the order is random, I can't choose between them, they're all great and unique):

* Wuthering Heights door Emily Bronte (a great book, one of my favourites)-the auteur is extremely innovative (for the 1850s)–you’ll definitely love it
* Jane Eyre door charlotte Bronte
* Pride and Prejudice door Jane Austen (not as good as the Bronte sisters' but still a great classic) – if u like Austen u may also consider Sense and Sensibility, Mansfield Park of Emma
* Les Miserables door Victor Hugo
* The Great Expectations door Charles Dickens
* Robinson Crusoe door Daniel Defoe
* Gulliver's Travels door Jonathan Swift
* The Picture of Dorian Gray door Oscar Wilde
* War and Peace and Anna Karenina door Leo Tolstoy
* The Idiot door Fyodor M. Dostoyevsky
* Le rouge and le noir (The red and the black) door Stendhal
* All Shakespeare’s works (As u Like It, Macbeth, Hamlet and so on)
* Vanity Fair door William Makepeace Thackeray
* Gone with the Wind door Margaret Mitchell
* The Great Gatsby door F. Scott Fitzgerald
* To Kill a Mockingbird door Harper Lee (don't know if it's already a classic but...you get my point)

There are many meer but these are the most known and most widely considered CLASSICS. They're all must-read boeken – my opinion is that u can’t read the contemporaries properly if u haven’t read at least the most important ‘classics’ of the ‘canonical’ authors.
