“Lit’s top 100” put out an excellent list, one of the best I’ve come across in fact, that includes many classics. It’s neat and categorizes them based on average ranking and how many times they’ve appeared on books lists. I’d be more than happy to share it with you if you want to message me.

The brothers Karamazov, Wuthering Heights, Pride and Prejudice, the great Gatsby. That would be my four classics to find a direction. And then depending on wether you like them, you can pick similar ones since they all have brothers🫡

One of the 3 of these. Fahrenheit 451, 1984, or brave new world. Probably one of the first two.
