Saving just one book in English

Hamlet is my choice.

It has a thrilling plot, a dazzling diversity of characters, philosophical reflections, a gamut of emotion, excellent poetry (blank verse), and plenty of humor (even though it is a dark, brooding tragedy).  Hamlet, in my judgment, delves deeper into the human condition and human psyche than any other literary work in English that I've read.
