555 Great Works

This makes a fine collection of classics containing many great works of fiction and non-fiction. Regrettably I have only read a few dozen of them. Admittedly I have made some headway with 'In Search of Lost Time' but have failed repeatedly with 'Ulysses'. I can't see myself ever attempting 'Finnegans Wake'.
