The Past Few Years I've Made a Goal of Reading 24 Books. This Year I'm Only Reading The VERY BEST Books. I Want To Dive Deep & Really Soak These Books In. Where Can I Find Free Online Classes Teaching About These Phenomenal Literary Works?

As the title states, I'm looking for teaching resources on literary works. The past few years I set a goal to read 24 books. I've completed that and some I like and some I fly through and just are OK. I've decided that next year I only want to read THE BEST literary works out there. There is too much 'noise' out there and I'm going to only consume the best media available. There are too many books, too many podcasts, too many streaming services & shows/movies to watch them all. It's exhausting! Next year, I'm going to only consume the best of the best. Only whats really worth my time. I want to really dig deep into these books and learn more after I finish rather than closing the last chapter and immediately opening the next book. I understand that many people write their whole dissertations on some of these topics. Where can I go to dig deeper and really understand the literary significance of these works?

My list for next year includes:

War and Peace

The Odyssey

The Brothers Karamazov

Master and Margarita

The Sun Also Rises

Robinson Crusoe

East of Eden

Grapes of Wrath

To Kill A Mocking Bird

Macbeth

Romeo and Juliet

Hamlet

The Holy Bible

Any others I should add that should trump something on this list?
