I have read 16 novels from the left list and and 20 from the right list. And most of the rest is on my reading list, apart from Virginia Woolf and Henry James, which I have given up on a long time ago. I used to work in a bookstore where the employees were required to know and to have read the classics. I miss those days, and especially the 35% discount I had. Sigh.
