We're an impatient people for the most part, and I'm usually leading that parade with baton in hand. So, if you are looking for 20 classic novels you can read in one sitting, check this out.
Of the ones I've read (only nine), The Red Badge of Courage stands out to me as perhaps one that you don't usually see on these kind of lists as it rightfully should be. It was assigned reading in my English-teacher Dad's classes and I went back and reread it again a couple years ago with a lot more appreciation, and maybe a tad bit more maturity than I had 30 years ago. Just a tad, maybe more like a smidge.
