Just realize that there's such a good place for us.
I personally recommend short stories by Mark Twin. It's easy to read and it
makes you feel relaxed while leaving you something to think about. Another
advantage of short stories is that you can stop at any time and they won't
overwhelm you.
I also recommend the long poem "Losing The Paradise" by Milton. It's purely
beautiful and entertaining as well.
If you have time, you may also wish to read "The Thorn Bird". It's a book
on the western value

From Nobel Prize web site:
Literature 1913
TAGORE, RABINDRANATH, India, b. 1861, d. 1941:
"because of his profoundly sensitive, fresh and beautiful verse,
by which, with comsummate skill, he has made his poetic thought,
expressed in his own English words, a part of the literature of
the West"
