Examples of books (or stories) that you reread years later, & found to be much better? For me: Arrival (Ted Chiang, loved it even the first time); Speaker for the Dead (ditto: loved it at first, even more upon reread); the Great Gatsby (didn't like first time, loved the second)

I cannot speak highly enough of that book (and his other collection of lectures on Russian literature are even better). Nabokov has possibly the keenest and most lucid understanding of what makes a book 'great' in a non-trivial way.
