Sure, but "classics" is not a genre. There is the common impression that a "classic" must be something serious, profound, philosophical, dealing with the eternal fears of the human being, etc. But I believe this is more what the later critics have said about the "classics". You can find adventures, mysteries, light romance, humour, and almost anything among what we know as "classics".
