Les Miserables - Victor Hugo (get the old english unabridged edition if you can)
I jsut finished the Lee Fahnestock and Norman MacAfee translation. I can't agree with the unabridged part. I thought the story was amazing. The extra stuff was torture to read in my opinion. My interest in the sewer system in my town basically extends to "does it work?" so 20 pages on 19th century Paris' sewer was tough to suffer through.
I really enjoyed Generation Kill. I haven't seen the mini-series currently running on HBO, but I'm sure it is of high quality as well.
Currently I'm reading Don Quixote and really enjoy it.

Thank you, Les Mis was great, I don’t think I had that edition but would like to own it. Thank you for your recommendations, I know they are good ones!
