Favorite Classic?

[seka]

Sadly, I didn't read a lot of the classics while in school. So now I'm trying to catch up and read as many as I can. So my question to all of you is what your favorite classics are and why?

Thanks!

I second Dickens, but would recommend A Tale of Two Cities, which is one of my all-time favourite books. Hard to get into, but one of the best books.

Also seconding The Wind in the Willows and would further suggest The Wizard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland as good children's literature to start with.
