Invitation to the Classics - Page 2

A classic, according to Mark Twain is "a book that people praise and don't read." So I make this list to challenge myself and others. These titles are drawn from the book by the same title. Invitation to the Classics is a guide to those great works of literature that you always meant to read. It provides a gateway to the fulfilling pursuit of understanding our culture by exploring its most enduring writings.
