What pieces of classical literature deserve a manga / anime adaptation?

I could see it work as a movie or short manga adaptation under a creator willing to take generous liberties with the presentation, focusing instead on the different animated/comic medium rather than adapting the literature concept like-for-like. It has the right, light-hearted tone for one, and since it already has a whole section about Japanese erotica an anime/manga adaptation is the logical next step.

Not really a classic but I've always thought Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami would make a nice anime series or movie

Sanshiro by Soseki. It already has a bit of NTR and teenage angst and it could be adapted by the committee retards who only consume anime and videogames.

Or The Makioka Sisters. I would love an anime about their Osaka ways.

Nothing about this would benefit from the anime treatment.
There's a soulless live action btw.

Don't let the the Gabrioto-dickriders tell you otherwise, Aureliano arc is overrated... the art took a steep decline, and the sameface meant I couldn't tell the difference between any of the family members

Unironically yes, im only a /lit/ casual, so I donโ€™t know much esoteric and obscure stuff but the Iliad and the odyssey would both be incredible anime, even Platoโ€™s republic could make a great 1 season anime.
I also vote for the following works to be adapted
The Brothers Karamazov
Crime and Punishment
War and Peace
Anna Karenina
Most-Dick
Basically any major Shakespeare work
Ulysses
Not really a classic but Blood Meridian lol just imagine the Judge drawn anime

The Book of the New Sun series animated as closely to the Amano Yoshitaka covers in artstyle as possible.
