I cried at the end of grapes of Wrath because the pain was just too much. Lolita too, although I didn't cry physically, it was more like helpless despair and anguish.

Novels rarely make me cry, but poems and plays just rock me to my core sometimes. I cried at the end of Fences when I saw it live. I can't read T.S. Eliot's best work without crying. The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock is devastating on so many levels.
