Im a diehard romantic so that is why I go for Lawrence, Austen and Hardy - Hardy is not your classic romantic writer but Tess of d'Ubervilles is a haunting love story though. I have re-read all of Austens's books and movies based on her novels over and over and over
There are many wonderful British poets too such as Tennyson, Yeats, Wordsworth, Browning, etc.
Dont forget C.S Lewis, Verne, Woolf, etc. So many to list yet so little time!
On a similiar note, I was driving by a doggie daycare last Sunday. It is called "Virginia Woof". I doubled over in laughter. What a great word play!!!!
