<Snipped quote by Haeo>

I have other ideas that are considered classics, then again I do enjoy historical fiction, albeit as long as it's accurate in so way shape or form.

I'm currently reading, Sir Thomas Mallory's Le Morte d'Arthur, a modernized re-telling however so it's not in old English. But I also have, Chaucer's Canterybury Tales, and The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood by Howard Pyle. I do enjoy other literature classics, such as Candide or Optimism by Voltaire, Dante's Inferno by Dante Aligheri, and of course Shakespeare. Now finding a man that enjoys these literature tastes is rather more difficult, or anyone in general.

Unfortunately, my repertoire is somewhat more limited.  Dante's Inferno was indeed worthy.  And, though I was excessively instructed in his works to the point of despising him, Shakespeare had great skill.  I have found little time for reading since the advent of parenthood.
