The Great Non-English Language Novels - Page 4

This list is inspired by The Atlantic's 2024 list of their Great American Novels. I've made numerous lists about great novels, and we can't forget the great non-English novels that have been written. For this list, I'm not abiding by The Atlantic's strict rule that all books are published within the last 100 years and thus have no time limit on their publication. I will make another list that does comply with that rule. So, I have 136 novels, just like The Atlantic's list, but the one rule I imposed on myself is to allow an author only one entry on the list. Enjoy!
