This is part of why I haven't read more on this list. Classic literature is held up on a high pedestal simply because they are classics. While they may be well-written, the culture they are important to isn't always universal or timeless. Some of them still certainly stand out, though. 1984 is absolutely still important.
My problem is that whenever I am tempted to read a novel, I find a nonfic book I'd rather read.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
