I haven’t read many classics, just a few like Animal Farm, 1984, Pride and Prejudice, The Great Gatsby, a couple of Shakespeare’s plays, and some of George Bernard Shaw’s dramas for college. But I know not all classics are worth reading, and I don’t want to read them just for the sake of it.
I’m looking for classic books—fiction or nonfiction—that will actually teach me something. Books that offer deep insights, life lessons, or a unique perspective on the world. They can be about philosophy, human nature, society, or personal growth—basically, something that will add real value to my life rather than just being a "must-read classic."
Any recommendations?

Well, you could try Homer’s Odyssey. You don’t really need to read the Illiad before it. It’s a great standalone story. The Odyssey is all about relentlessness. It permeates every aspect of the storytelling. Even the reading of it will test your endurance. Lol
