    I undertook myself to read as much "Classic" fiction as I could after I was in a car crash 9 weeks ago. Things havent bee too speedy to be frank, but heres what Ive got through in this space of time, plus a few from before then.

    Joseph Conrad - Heart of Darkness
    George Orwell - 1984; Animal Farm
    Mary Shelly - Frankenstein
    John Steinbeck - Grapes of Wrath
    R.L. Stevenson - Kidnapped
    Jonathon Swift - Gulliver's Travels
    Mark Twain - The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
    Jules Verne - All Around the World in 80 Days

    At other times I have read:
    J.D. Salinger - The Catcher in the Rye
    R.L. Stevenson - Treasure Island
    J.R.R. Tolkien - The Lord of the Rings; The Simarilion; The Hobbit

    Currently reading Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe
