I was a literature major but I only read two of these books for school.

Ulysses - I read this with another book that commented on everything chapter by chapter. That helped and I really enjoyed it.

A Christmas Carol - I've read this multiple times. It's the essence of Christmas for me.

The Satanic Verses - I read another Rushdie book and it was such a chore to get through that I don't think I can try another one.

Moby Dick - No, I had a choice between this and The Scarlet Letter in high school and picked The Scarlet Letter because it was shorter. (I didn't appreciate The Scarlet Letter until I read it again recently.)

A Brief History of Time - I love science books that I can almost understand.

Remembrance of Things Past - I've read the whole thing 1.9 times (just couldn't bring myself to finish it the second time). I've read the Combray intro to Swann's Way many, many times. It's beautiful music.

The Name of the Rose - Read it.

Don Quixote - I read an abridged version for a class and loved it. Always wanted to go back and read the whole thing, never did.

I refuse to read William Faulkner or Ernest Hemingway.
