Sometimes I pick up a book for the first time knowing only vaguely what to expect and the thing absolutely floors me. A few cases I could mention include Don Quixote by Cervantes, The Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich by William Shirer, Watership Down by Richard Adams, Fail-Safe by Eugene Burdick and Harvey Wheeler and ... believe it or not ... The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins which, though I would not call it "great literature", I found to be unputdownable.
I am currently reading such a book. It is The House Of The Dead by Dostoyevsky. Though it is one of Dostoyevsky's lesser known works and the contents is very depressing I find myself drawn to it every free moment I have. I just found out yesterday to my surprise that Tolstoy considered it Dostoyevsky's greatest work.
