Defining Moments in Books - The Great Literary Challenge - Page 8

I recently bought a book titled: "Defining Moments in Books: The Greatest Books, Writers, Characters, Passages and Events that Shook the Literary World" by Lucy Daniel (Editor). The book covers all areas of literature from poetry and plays to children's books. I have tried to include all the books mentioned in the book. Are you up for the challenge? How many of them have you read?
P.S. I apologise for any possible duplicates in the list.
