Description

Witty and sometimes controversial selection of 194 books deemed by editors to be the best published since 1950, with the addition for this first paperback edition of six reader-nominated authors not included in the original hardback. Familiar names such as Bellow and Nabokov rub shoulders with some more surprising choices, Thomas Harris and Mario Puzo included, in a project which aims to encourage reading and stimulate debate. "Each day I look at it, "The Modern Library" grows in value, as a record of territory rediscovered, a map of journeys to come" "Irish Times".
