- Moby Dick
- Lord of the Rings

Read those.
For me it's Hornblower stuff, Faulkner's the Reivers, some more Auden (guy was a fucking genius), and any Thomas Wolfe.
But right now I want to read good books about pirates.

Read those in the thread starter, read all the Hornblowers. Have no desire to delve off into the Deep Classics.

Try the A-M series...

Not so many pirates, but the twenty book series is actually one long story...
