Unlike most other classics turned graphic novels, this version of Gatsby includes the original writing by F. Scott Fitzgerald within the panels and original dialogue in speech bubbles. This makes this more accurate to the original format and suitable for those who still want the classic literature feeling but with the addition of pictures. The graphic novel also includes a cast page, so there is no need to guess who is who in the story.
Many know Frankenstein from the iconic portrayal of the classic horror character by Boris Karloff, but those who have studied literature know the monster from Mary Shelley's work. Regardless of where readers know the story from, the graphic novel adaptation is one of the best horror stories ever told, with artwork that perfectly captures gore in the time and from which it was originally written.
This is a good starting point for those just getting into classic horror literature as they can gauge their tolerance level of gore and engage with the story more quickly through the art presented in the panels.
War and Peace is one of the most well known pieces of literature in the world, but is not incredibly accessible to those who have not delved into Tolstoy's works before, or know much about Russian literature. The graphic novel removes some of the complexities of the original work but stays close to the main points of the classic that made it so well known.
"Wuthering Heights," published in 1847, was the first and only novel by Emily Brontë, who died a year later at 30. Brontë tells the tragic love story between Heathcliff, an orphan, and Catherine, his wealthy benefactor's daughter. Considered a classic in English literature, the novel shows readers how passionate and destructive love can be.

One of the best known dystopian novels of all time, 1984 is George Orwell's terrifying vision of a totalitarian future in which everything and everyone is slave to a tyrannical regime lead by The Party. The novel has a fascinating history, from the phenomenon the book became on publication to the impact it has had on the English language. Dorian Lynskey explores the cultural history of 1984 in his remarkable book The Ministry of Truth.
The novel has had an unquestionable impact on society and literature. Orwell coined terms within 1984 that have become integral to our dialogue regarding propaganda and authoritarian politics. Terms like Big Brother, Thought Police, Orwellian, doublethink, thoughtcrime, newspeak, and more.
Slaughterhouse-Five by Kurt Vonnegut is another classic that has been revered as one of the best novels of all time. Again in this novel, the author is building upon the events of the Second World War. Which is not surprising considering it was first published in 1969.
Finally, we end our list of books like 1984 with another classic first published in 1993. The Giver by Lois Lowry is a young adult novel, but shares many similarities with 1984 in its dissemination of information and propaganda. It is the first book in a quartet.
