Harenberg Book of 1000 Books - Literary Canon - Page 2

A comprehensive mix of books across all genres, including non-fiction. Sorted alphabetically by author's last name.
Some titles are pretty rare and didn't come up in database, so the list is less than 1000+ books presented in the source material. Still a very nice list as it is!
*Note: Entry #492 is an error - should be Wolfskin by Hans Lebert*
