How Many Of The ’110 Best Books’ Have You Read?
Something I keep stumbling on, usually while Googling other things, is the Telegraph’s list of the 110 books everyone ought to have read, which was published over the summer. Divided into handy categories like “Romantic Fiction” and “Books That Changed The World,” the list provides brief and sometimes-hilarious synopses of classics in all genres — ‘Madame Bovary,’ for example, is described like so: “Flaubert’s finely crafted novel tells the story of Emma, a bored provincial wife who comforts herself with shopping and affairs. It doesn’t end well.”
So! I’ve read 37 of the “Best Books”, a figure that includes exactly zero from the “History” category and everything in the “Children’s Books” section. How many have you read? Are there any especially glaring omissions? HINT: We have comments now! USE THEM.
