Firstly Oliver Twist isn't a MODERN classic, and secondly add your entry to the list. One entry per post. I'll add "A Little Princess".

Oliver Twist is certainly a classic Jillian, but modern classics are widely believed to start after Victoriana (i.e. the 20th Century). But it's debatable. :-)
It's a moot point anyway as I guess it's UFG. :-)

Not the whole thread, just that last topic. Modern Classics may not even come up again.
