Oh, could I feel as I have felt, or be what I have been, Or weep as I could once have wept, o'er many a vanished scene; As springs in deserts found seem sweet, all brackish though they be, So, midst the withered waste of life, those tears would flow to me.

'This is the saddest story I know'...opening lines to The Good Soldier by Ford Madox Ford.

Same here and like Padfoot, most of these are from my youth:
Shiloh Old Yeller Animal Farm Ethan Frome
And I don’t know if you guys have heard of it but a few years back my sister gave me a copy of Rob Thomas’ Rats Saw God and I thought it was extremely sad.
