Anna Karenina (Penguin Classics)
2.  Anna Karenina (Penguin Classics) by Leo Tolstoy

The English Patient
4.  The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje
The list author says:
  "This was a last minute choice for a comparative essay assignment. In the end this one became my favorite. The movie doesn't do Ondjaate's lyrical prose justice."

The Grapes of Wrath
5.  The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck

The Shadow Of The Wind
6.  The Shadow Of The Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
