Books Containing the Greatest Lists in Literature — Flavorwire

Lists, of course, are no rare thing in literature, and have many uses, from adding quirk to showing off knowledge, and have storied positions in classic texts like The Faerie Queene (so many different kinds of trees) and The Illiad (200+ lines of Greek chieftains). Here are the books that contain the most memorable lists in literature, from short to impossibly long, from lists that catalogue items to those that follow the train of imagination.
