Books!

[romanajo123]

 This might come across as a vague question,  but can anyone on here recommend any classic books that are interesting but wouldn't be extremely difficult? 


*this comes from trying to read Henry James and having to look up a lot of the words. Yes, I know Context Rules but even in context , I didn't know words like "prodigious," "beatific," or "fortitude" if I'm being honest. :/

A lot of them were parodies of the sort of moralistic poems Victorian children had to learn. For instance, "You are old, Father William" is a parody of "The Old Man's Comforts and How He Gained Them".
