At least I have never heard of Lucy Maud Montgomerey’s The Golden Road, for example. I’m not exactly literature literate so may that is a classic and I’m just clueless.

There’s also a free Shakespeare site. It’s called No Fear Shakespeare. It has Shakespeare’s original wording and it has a modern English translation. Golly, it’s almost like talking about Bible versions! Continue reading ‘Read Classic Authors’ Works Online’
