Here are ten great American novels that students should read; Moby Dick, the great American novel ever written, my favorite the ultimate struggle of good and evil; East of Eden; Catcher in the Rye, Huckleberry Finn; Scarlet Letter; Great Gatsby; Grapes of Wrath, Old Man and the Sea, Catch-22, To Kill a Mockingbird.
Some others are Gone with the Wind, On the Road, Uncle Tom’s Cabin, All the Kings Men, Red Badge of Courage.
