Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately.

Sure. 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is a classic. It deals with themes of racism and justice in the American South. Another great one is '1984' by George Orwell, which is a dystopian novel that warns about totalitarianism. And 'Jane Eyre' is also wonderful. It tells the story of a strong - willed woman's journey through love and self - discovery.
