It's too bad they're not impressed. I'd say keep trying, but then again, some things need age and wisdom to appreciate.
Don't let their disinterest affect you, that's a great bool and you should enjoy it for you.
If you want me to pitch you something, I'd way recommend The Stormlight Archive by Brandon Sanderson instead. It's only 2 books in so far (The Way of Kings and Words of Radiance), but they are seriously just so good that I can't even do it justice giving you a synopsis, but here goes: There are a few different POVs, but mostly it focuses on Kaladin, a slave who gets assigned to this bridge crew in the military where they have to carry these giant, heavy bridges around so the assault troops can cross these giant chasms to fight the Parshendi--creepy bastards with shell-like armor that grows out of their skin. Eventually Kaladin finds out he can suck in stormlight from certain stones and do some neat magic stuff with it (don't want to give too much away here). There are also these knights called shardbearers who can summon these giant blades from thin air, which cut through just about everything like a lightsaber through butter, and if they cut through a person, their eyes burn out and their soul dies. The book is just so imaginative and awesome--it's unlike most other fantasy books I've read--plus, it has artwork every few chapters detailing the creatures, plants, etc.
Wheel of Time on the other hand, supposedly really bogs down in the middle (before the original author died and the series was taken over by Brandon Sanderson). But basically it starts out as a kind of Lord of the Rings clone, where these 3 kids from a small village set out across the world after it turns out they're the only ones who can stop the Dark One, who sends trollocs (basically orcs) and Myrddral (basically ringwraiths) after them, and they've got an Aes Sedai witch along with them to keep them from dying. It comes into its own by the 2nd book, and I've really been enjoying it so far (I'm only on book 4/15), so if that sounds at all interesting to you, check out book 1, The Eye of the World (link to the first half of the book, free on tor.com).
There're plenty of good recommendations over at /r/Fantasy, and many people (myself included) have asked your same question there.
Do you have this one? Interesting read if you run out of other Joyce things :)
I've thought about doing this with D'Aulaires' Book of Greek Myths, I love the illustrations so much
I loved that pop up book!
Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll and Robert Sabuda
I cherish my copy of 'Pulp Art,' sounds like what you may be looking for.. http://www.amazon.com/Pulp-Art-Original-Paintings-Magazines/dp/0517200589
I know they say don't judge a book by the cover but I wish they still produced the old Murakami cover art. The new editions are so ugly. Love this book and many of his other ones.

I don't have any favourites yet. I save them for days when I don't have time to read much.
Is that what these are? The release date is different. I like the look.
Meditations is an awesome read! The version on my pictures, though, is an old translation and kind of hard to follow. Dover Thrift offers a contemporary English translation that makes it orders of magnitude more understandable. http://amzn.com/048629823X
I see a bunch up for preorder at amazon.co.uk, with listed dimensions of 17.4x11.3cm (6.85x4.46in).
e: and the isbn is on amazon.com, too -- looks like they're not out until 4/28/15 in the states, msrp of $20.

That's the one I have. Apparently it's leatherette and not leather. Sadface.
Still cool, though.
•I like Choke a lot
•Slaughterhouse Five. Hands down. Favorite of all time.
•Its called We, The Drowned.
Edit: Fixed the link
It's about the '08 recession and underground gambling in New York. You can pick up a copy here or get it for free with Kindle Unlimited: https://www.amazon.com/We-Run-Bad-John-Curry-ebook/dp/B07DDL22LZ
This is the one I got. It's a bit cheaper and eligible for Prime.
This might be what you're looking for: http://www.amazon.com/The-Ultimate-Hitchhikers-Guide-Complete/dp/0517226952/
I believe that's the version I have on my shelf at home.

Anywhere one can buy them as a set (with reasonable shipping prices within Europe)?Nvm, found one place at least: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Penguin-Epics-Greatest-Stories-Complete/dp/0140912002/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1410196578&sr=8-2&keywords=penguin+epics
While not as pretty as the one posted here..
