This is where the kindle really comes into its own! You can downloadfrom project Gutenberg and take all these “classics” with you. I have read Middlemarch, Adam Bede, Anna Karenina and re-read War and Peace, Heart of Darkness,Call of the Wild, sailing alone round the world (by Joshua Slocum and heartily recommended) Utopia and have yet to download Hemingway, James and Proust.
