Here's my list:
"Sons and Lovers" - D.H. Lawrence
"Oh Human Bondage" - Somerset Maugham
"The Fall" - Albert Camus (great writer overall-any book would be a win)
Here's the list of 'maybe not in the classics '(yet):
Anything by Phillip Roth
Anything by Will Self (contemporary writer - he is so intellectually stimulating that reading one of his books is mentally orgasmic)
"Waiting Period" - Hubert Selby (love 'em all though)
"The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told to Alex Haley"
Anything by Truman Capote
"Dead Babies" - Martin Amis
Anything by Henry Rollins

"Grapes of Wrath" is a good choice, but try also "The winter of Our discontent" by Steinbeck.
"The Sound and The Fury" by William Faulkner.
"Ulysses" by James Joyce

Tom Sawyer or any of these on the list of 100 classics - it gives you a bit of a speel on what the book is about...

Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck...I promise you you won't be able to put the book down, and can be read in about 2 days, if you do put it down. Awesome story and a real tear-jerker!!!
