When you think of publishers you probably think of all the big names, including Penguin Random House. Before we go any further you might like to peruse the complete list yourself here https://www.penguin.co.uk/classicslist
Today I want to lay out those books for you. You may find the list useful. It is also a good way to mark down which classics you have yet to read. They say ‘you should read the classics’ but in reality, the majority of people haven’t even read their own mail.
It is not a full and complete list. You will find that there are thousands of books. I will simply list some here which may be appealing to you. 25 listed.
- Jane Eyre
- Pride and Prejudice
- Frankenstein
- The Count of Monte Cristo
- Wuthering Heights
- Dracula
- A Tale of Two Cities
- Sense and Sensibility
- The Picture of Dorian Gray
- Moby-Dick
- Crime and Punishment
- Great Expectations
- Anna Karenina
- The Odyssey
- The Art of War
- The Adventures of Huckleberry Fin
- 1984
- Meditations
- Oliver Twist
- Don Quixote
- Les Misérables
- War and Peace
- David Copperfield
- Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass
- East of Eden
You can go to a variety of sites to buy these books, including Penguin, Amazon, Waterstones and more. I recommend checking out World of Books first; they offer secondhand books at reasonable prices. I’ve bought from them before with no issues in quality.

I prefer the classics. 😊 Great list! I have enjoyed many of them.

I am now tackling War and Peace. I find the classics have more literary genius to them. I still have yet to read pride and prejudice!
