As much as they are classic, having 2 books of the same author seems too much (of course is your list). I'd drop one of them and add something by E.A. Poe

I think the argument is that it's not "literature", it's more like a fable in the self-help section. I enjoyed it when I was young, but it's not at the same level of the other classics. And it's pretty short, so it doesn't feel like a good dive in a world.
