The 1001 Books You Must Read in Your Lifetime - Page 21

The list of 1001 books that you must have read in your life, at least according to Jean d'Ormesson, Peter Boxall, Peter Ackroyd and a bunch of other people... I know that the list already exists in English, but the person didn't include exactly all the titles so I thought I would make my own ;) Some titles are not in English, for the simple reason that they have never been translated.
