The Best Literature for Adults - A Sampling - Page 5

Stumbled across a GRAmazon list from a while back: the best literature for adults, the parameters being fiction, no series' entries, average rating of 4.00 or higher, at least 5000 ratings, nothing for children, either full length novels or short story collections, and no plays. Chewed through my own library under those guidelines, and here are the results.
