I suppose I don't need to give a thourough explanation and summarization, its reputation speak for itself.
This is one of the books I've reread a couple of times , it's that good.

Thank you for posting this! I love stories set in rural settings. And, I love TKAM. I'm going to look for this one right now.windchime64 wrote: ↑31 Dec 2009, 08:49 "Cold Sassy Tree" by Olive Ann Burns
About a 14 year old boy growing up in a poor rural town in the 1920's alongside his beloved grandfather. Will Tweedy has many adventures and close-calls. This book will keep you laughing and probably make you shed a tear or two.
My ALL TIME FAVORITE!
A little bit of "Tom Sawyer" mixed with "To Kill a Mockingbird" style.
You can spend your time however you want, but you can spend it only once.

To past blurb, you're not the only one in your affection for Emma. I adored all of Jane Austen's books, yet I think my most loved is still Pride and Prejudice. Elizabeth Bennett is the ideal courageous woman IMO.
To the extent other Classic writing, I'm a major devotee of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest and additionally The Picture of Dorian Gray. Everything Wilde composed was splendid, however these two contrast from one another in tone to such an extent as to make them emerge for me. I additionally like Lady Windermere's fan.
I think Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights is a stunning story. It sucks me in each time I read it. Heathcliff is as yet the most merciless scalawag I've experienced in writing.
