The Boxall 1001 / Guardian 1000 Overlap List

All the books from the Guardian newspaper's "1000 Novels Everyone Must Read" that also appear in at least one edition of Boxall's "1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die".
Read these books and you can check off items from two mega-lists simultaneously!
(It has been brought to my notice that I have scandalously forgotten to include Mary Barton by Gaskell. Sorry about that. I sadly can't add to the list now.)
