I've read Dracula...but have you read Arabian Nights?...
We've read "The Silmarillion"
We haven't read the 19th century, England.
Hmm, perhaps it doesn't count.
So
We haven't read "Sandman" by Neil Gaiman.
Depends on which Sandman is being talked about. I have read the 'Sandman: Book of Dreams' anthology, edited by Neil Gaiman and related to his Sandman Comic Universe. Haven't read the comics themselves.
So, in case it turns out to be valid,
I haven't read 'The Martian Chronicles' by Ray Bradbury.
Any takers?
A book I have read is The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas, which was an exceptional heroic tale of three musketeers and the valiant and heroic D'Artagnan Gascon. It is a tale of love, deceit and war. You will love it if you have seen the films! :D
A book I haven't read is: William Shakespeare's; A Midsummer's Night Dream
I've read The Arabian Nights, The Martian Chronicles, and even, although I detest Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream.
I have not read any of Steven King's horror novels....
ohohoh, I've read a lot of Steven King, The Stand, It, Misery, etc...
I haven't read Return of the Native.
I have read The Return of the Native. It is the worst Hardy book I have read. The story was predictable and too melodramatic and it seemed like Hardy tried to hard with his style as well.
I haven't read Dune.
Dune was pretty good, Dune Messiah was better, Children of Dune was fair, but I bogged down on God Emperor of Dune. The new ones with Herbert's son and Kevin J. Anderson are overwhelming with detail.
I've never read Atlas Shrugged....
I've read Atlas Shrugged, sluggish pace but in retrospect Ayn Rand has so much symbolism in it that I could bore someone for hours talking about it.
I've never read Pride and Prejudice.
I have read Pride and Prejudice and I liked it very much.
I have never read Far from the Madding Crowd. Have you?
I just remembered I read Far From The Madding Crowd a long time ago, as the only work I have read by Thomas Hardy. I cannot call him an easy author to read, but it had quite a plot, to say it in as few words as possible.
I have never read Dubliners by James Joyce.
I have read Dubliners. It was the first of Joyce's works that I read. He uses a lot of realism and symbolism in these stories, unlike his other works using the stream of consciousness technique. The last story, 'The Dead' is almost a novella in itself...apart from being the hardest, according to me. But Joyce is one of my favourite writers now.
I've never read 'A Clockwork Orange' by Anthony Burgess.
Clockwork Orange = Depressing Reading
For what it is worth, the movie is even more surreal.
Edit: Seems like 'Grapes...' has already been done.
Haven't read Margaret Mitchell's 'Gone With The Wind'.
I have read Gone With the Wind and despite its length, I could not put it down. I think Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler are two of the most memorable characters in literature.
I haven't read Lolita by Nabokov.
