Almost 40 Years of Hard Work to Be Well-Read - Page 18

It's a selection of 1000 books out of over 3100 that I have read so far. I consider them as a good base to say someone is well-read. Many titles you won't find on every list :)
Most of them were published in English I left only a few from other languages when I couldn't manage to find a translation.
