For me it's Ulysses and The Fall. I found Ulysses interestingly irreverent, but not much fun; it felt like watching a Man Ray film. I stopped about 1/3 the way through. Have you ever watched a Man Ray film? enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNYhgcV3o-E

As for let's talk about the Fall it felt like and you know what I mean this.

I didn't see much in the Great Gatsby either. Don Quixote was ok.

My favorite 'Great Literature': Moby Dick and War and Peace.
