Candide by Voltaire
PG Wodehouse is light and funny and excellently written.
Diary Of A Nobody
The Betty McDonald books, e g The Egg and I
Arrowsmith is a classic that is also a medical novel, but not a comedy.
Three men in a Boat
I second pretty much all of Wodehouse and THREE MEN IN A BOAT by Jerome K. Jerome. I would also recommend the wonderful autobiographical account MY FAMILY AND OTHER ANIMALS by Gerald Durrell.
I don’t know if William Boyd’s A GOOD MAN IN AFRICA is considered a modern classic, but it’s a fun novel that mixes up black comedy, satire and outright farce.
