Literature Map of the World (Edit)

Based on "Literature Map of the World" curated by Reddit user by Backforward24.
"[G]reat books for over 150 locations! The critrea [sic] a book needs to meet is that it must be high resolution, and preferably written by an author of that country, about that country."
Wonderful idea and way to hear about literature from around the world. This list has been edited to reflect more work by native authors or more appropriate choices were found IMO (ie Iceland). So the modus operandi here was not about high resolution images unlike the original project.
