Woolf and Miller are probably not as popular among younger readers, though the film "The Hours" (and Cunningham's book) may have brought some sophisticated readers to Woolf.
Lawrence is often required reading in American high schools and universities, but it's pretty rare for a teenager to simply pick up a D.H. Lawrence novel for the 'fun of it'. Maupassant would also be a highly unlikely author for younger generations to simply pick up for light reading.
Jack London may still be favored by young readers due to his ruggedly-themed books and accessibility of imagery.

Nah, I mean, The Iron Heel was alright, but I'm not a big Virginia Woolfe fan.
What you really want to know, according to your endnote right there, but are too polite to come out and ask, is; Do young people actually read?
For the vast majority, I'm sorry to say, No is the answer you want. But there always have been, and I'm sure there always will be, that select group of possible future Vonneguts, Sartres, and Clarkes, sitting alone in a dimly lit bedroom amongst piles of undone homework, pondering about the world as they read about their predessesors...

a million. Languages continuously substitute. 2. Our opinion of language sorts is a mirrored image of the persons who use those language sorts. positioned those at the same time and also you'll get: 3. in case you imagine that the sorts used with the help of the more youthful era are "deteriorated", this signifies that you don't love little ones. substitute isn't continuously decay. Language differences because human beings make it substitute. We would not substitute it except we theory it can serve us. How could a deteriorated style serve us more effective acceptable?

Some of those ring a bell, but that's about it. But then again I read more fantasy and some classical than anything else so there is a good chance that I might be not the best authority on the subject.

We had to read "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller in 11th grade. I didn't really like it because of the way we read it... When I went back and reread it by myself, it was much better.

I'm 18. I've readed at least one book by each of them. But they're more for when I feel like being intellectual and getting something other than simple entertainment out of my read.
