It's not Homer, but I read Thucydides (translated) in college and still remember the way he said he wrote for all time. I think he's lasted long enough to serve as an example.
I'm sure that there are some current, and not-so current, books that will still be read a century from now. Take the Hobbit for instance, I'd argue that it has already reached the point after some seventy-odd years where it's likely to be a classic for generations to come.
