Translation:
Inspired by the YouTube channel Tristan & The Classics, I decided to start working on that list of "classics I should read". The trick that's been working for me, is that I read a short bit of a classic every day, and then I can read other books, that feels a bit "lighter". I started in April, and since then I've finished several classics.
But I started to wonder - what is a classic, really? Google gives me this list:
- Timeless relevance
- High quality language
- Universal themes
- Long standing influence
- Part of a literary canon
So far I have read:
- Dubliners by James Joyce
- Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
- Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
- The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas by Joaquin Maria Machado de Assis
- End of the Game by Julio Cortazar
- A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
- To the Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf
Right now I'm reading 1984 by George Orwell, and next in line are Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson and Return to Ithaca by Eyvind Johnson.
