Fantasy Fiction Bookshelf

This week, because I am going into marathon novel-writing mode, we're going to be building a fantasy bookcase.  Each day we will start one shelf. 
Because we are all highly organized individuals (wouldn’t that be nice?) each shelf of our fantasy bookcase will house one specific type of writing.  And our books will be arranged by shelf in order of preference.  Let’s begin with fiction. 
I have to start with Lady Chatterley's Lover. It was the first literary title that I picked up and read, not because I had to, but because I wanted to.  I remember thinking while I was reading, "I will never be able to read crappy writing again."  I credit that book with opening my eyes to good writing, so it has to go first on my fiction shelf.

What is the first fiction title that you will put on your bookshelf?
