The Essential British Classics Collection: 5 Timeless Novels

Featured Listen
David Copperfield by Charles Dickens explores the life of its titular character from his troubled upbringing to his eventual success as a writer. Serialized between 1849 and 1850, this literary classic opens a window into not only one character's life but also 19th-century English society, showcasing Dickens's critique of its institutions and norms.
Featured Article: 50+ Undying Quotes About Life from Acclaimed Authors
Though it's hard to argue with Merriam-Webster, we all know that life means something more than the standard dictionary definition—or, at least, we want it to. If you're searching for insights into the meaning of life, or words of inspiration to make your life more meaningful, there's no better source than authors of great works of literature. From Shakespeare to Alice Walker, from Jane Austen to Saul Bellow, iconic authors have a lot to say about life.
