My favorite book of all times is...Julius Ceasar by William Shakespeare...You know...beware of the eyes of March. Ye tu Bruti...etc...I love Shakespeare and Homer`s Iliad because it teaches us about how mistakes in life have profound effects on our lives and other people`s lives. Anyone else... favorite books, novels, and stories?

Hi,
I think the best piece of Literature of all time is 'Master & Margarita' by Mikhail Bulgakov. It is a gripping, humorous satire of the Soviet Union and a brilliant example of the triumph of human spirit over oppression.
All his books are fantastic and I challenge anyone to read his biography 'Manuscripts Don't Burn', without tears in their eyes.
Take Care
Vlas

Hey, Steve,
Thanks for the topic.
I LOVE READING more then anything else in a world in my spare time. If I get a hold of a very interesting book, I can spend all night reading it till I finish it.
I have read almost all novels by Alexandr Duma. I also enjoyed reading " Gone with the wind", "Scarlett" ...
I love all historical novels. Books that actually give you some kind of education.
Well, at least that's my point.

Take care...
