Image Journal's Top 100 Books of the 20th Century

Published January 2, 2000 by Image Journal
""We hope that the following list offers but a glimpse of that wealth of talent this past century has seen — talent exhibited both by those who laid the groundwork for the great works now being written and by those whose compelling narratives and lyrics are helping to bring us into the twenty-first century with a renewed hope in the marriage of religion and art." ~ Image
