Finally picked up Grapes of Wrath, and damn is it good. Steinbeck has such beautiful prose when he's not writing southern dialect.
What other classics are still compelling today? If it's any help, I don't really dig Vonnegut, Asimov, and Huxley.

I've been reading Monte Cristo and its still good, though its kinda long as fuck
I actually have a copy of it in my room that I picked out of a trash can once. Been putting it off due to it being thicker than my arm. Might try to make it my summer read.
It's definitely a commitment and its not an easy read. But its very well written and even kind of funny at times
I found the second half far less interesting than the first personally.
