I call bullshit on #1 - it's a book people say they ought to pick, not a book people have read.

Here's my selections:


1. ULYSSES by James Joyce
5. BRAVE NEW WORLD by Aldous Huxley
7. CATCH-22
13. 1984 by George Orwell
14. I, CLAUDIUS by Robert Graves
18. SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE by Kurt Vonnegut
31. ANIMAL FARM by George Orwell
41. LORD OF THE FLIES by William Golding
50. TROPIC OF CANCER by Henry Miller
55. ON THE ROAD by Jack Kerouac
65. A CLOCKWORK ORANGE by Anthony Burgess
78. KIM by Rudyard Kipling

And YES, I read Ulysses all the way through, and NO I didn't think it was as confusing as people say.
