Dan's Literary Canon - Page 2

This list contains books that are part of my personal literary canon: books that I feel have shaped me as a reader, or are among the greatest books that I've ever read. These books have captured my imagination, sparked creativity, comforted, or guided me in some way. And each and every one has brought joy to my life in some way. I cannot recommend these books highly enough! How many of them have you read?
