I devoured classic novels as a teenager. In a world of distractions, can I relearn how to read them? https://www.theguardian.com/books/2026/jun/02/classic-novels-relearn-how-to-read-distractions-screens #Books #Fiction #Classics #CharlesDickens #ThomasHardy #GeorgeEliot #BramStoker #LaurenceSterne #Culture

It’s Weekend, Let’s Read: Who is the author with more works in the Guardian’s list of 100 greatest novels of all time?
The Guardian made a list of the 100 greatest novels of all time. You can see the list here, with links to how Guardian’s made it. First place of the list is George Eliot with Middlemarch, but I thought to check which authors had more works in this list. And it’s Virginia Woolf with five books!
Second place in the number of the novels in the list are Jane Austen and Charles Dickens, both with four books.
Best part? There all in public domain, so you want to start with any of these four authors, right here, right now, head to Project Gutenberg and let’s read!

Der Bahnwärter – Von Charles Dickens
“Hallo! Sie da unten!” – Da sind sie wieder, die Worte, die der Signalwärter Braxton schon in anderen Nächten von dem steilen Abhang her hörte. Ein Jahr zuvor sah er die Gestalt zum ersten Mal, die winkend zu ihm in die finstere Schlucht hinunterrief, während er seinen Dienst an den Gleisen versah. Sie liegen an einer Tunneleinfahrt, auf die mehrmals am Tag ein Schnellzug zurast. Wer oder was ist dieses “Gespenst”? Braxton weiß es nicht, doch eines steht fest: Ein jedes Mal, nachdem es ihn gerufen hatte, geschah ein furchtbares Unglück! Nun hört Braxton die warnenden Rufe erneut.
