"Maybe it’s a Pavlovian response to years of schooling, or that the brisk weather affords more hours inside, or something else entirely, but the fact is this: November seems like the time to take on the heftiest reading on your list."
The end of November is near, but you've still got time to tackle a difficult read such as the hefty tomes in this list by Emily Temple entitled "50 Incredibly Tough Books for Extreme Readers". For my part, I have read 3 of them:
This list includes Dante's The Divine Comedy but I've only read Inferno.

Infinite Jest, David Foster Wallace
Dhalgren, Samuel R. Delany
2666, Roberto Bolaño
The Canterbury Tales, Geoffrey Chaucer
