Denver Public Library Alternate Classics Collection - Page 5

A team of staff at Denver Public Library came up with the term "Alternate Classics" as a phrase to label great works from around the world that may not traditionally be thought of as "classics." Many classics lists (especially those founded in the tradition of the Western canon) are grounded in European and American voices. We believe that literature inspires empathy and that it's important to use literature to consume experiences across walks of life. Alternate Classics books are diverse and capture many different voices; they are enduring and important works of literature and narrative non-fiction that speak to the human condition.
