I fall into both camps on classics. Some I find impossible to keep going with. Others are among the best books I've ever read. Moby Dick, for instance, changed my entire view of what a novel could be; I had to drop every other book I've read down two notches as it defined a new "10" for me. Not necessarily because of the story, but largely because of what he could do with language.
