I have favorites too all-over-the-place to pick just one off of that list.
Actually, two of my favorite books ever, The Sirens of Titan (Vonnegut) and The Crying of Lot 49 (Pynchon) cover several genres just by themselves.
I do love classics, too, though. The Brothers Karamazov, Spoon River Anthology, and Animal Farm are a few other favorites of mine.
Oh, I could go on forever, though.
The last great canonical book I read was A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole. It's truly one of the funniest books I've ever read.
