Classics 101

So many books, so little time. Anyone, novice or expert, who is interested in reading classic literature might feel overwhelmed by the number of works categorized as "Classics." So, where should you get started?
The list below contains 101 works spanning multiple countries and subjects. It is meant to be a "get started" or "find something new" list for anyone on their own personal classic reading quest.
This list is far from comprehensive. In retrospect, for example, we would certainly add John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath (1939), among others. But this is a wonderful resource to get you started!
