The Ode Less Travelled by Stephen Fry

A Doll's House and Other Plays by Henrik Ibsen

Also included The League of Youth and The Lady from the Sea.

David Copperfield by Charles Dickens

Atonement by Ian McEwan

Middlemarch by George Eliot

A bigger tome than Tolstoy's Anna Karenina, also wittier, more entertaining and perhaps wiser for not being so solemn a novel.

I bought the book for $1 in a clearance sale over at the City of Melbourne library. I think that constitutes the best money to pages and money to enjoyment ratio for a book that is possible (at least for one that isn't free).

The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

The Road by Cormac McCarthy

The Classical World by Robin Lane Fox
