The Times Literary Supplement 100 Best Books of the Decade (2000s)

I must be 10 years behind the times. Another list from the noughties. Also another one used to compile the master list at thegreatestbooks.org, from which website I obtained the list. It came with some anomalies for which I can only guess the explanation (see below).
Notes: Frankly, I didn't know that "War and Peace" was written so recently. Actually, I assume its inclusion is for the Pevear & Volokhonsky translation. Similarly "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" for the Armitage translation.
