Top 200 English-Language Novels of the 20th Century - Page 3

This list is a composite of four earlier lists made by the Modern Library, the Library Journal, Koen Book Distributors, and students of the Radcliffe Publishing Course. It was compiled by Brian Kunde of Stanford University in hope of arriving at a more comprehensive view of what the 20th century's best fiction actually is. The books are listed in order of ranking - i.e., the top rated book is listed first.
