all books in lit top 100

what is lit top 100?

A book that all must read before they die for whatever purpose you see fit, be it for knowledge, personal growth, or pure entertainment.

The Blind Owl.

a quick search

I see. Since my bookcase is currently on the floor in pieces and my actual favorite books are everywhere, I can only offer you this shelf.

I found an old pic. Here's a crop of Must Reads. Add the New and Old Testament and apocrypha and Plato and Aristotle and you're golden.

If you could only read one Campbell what one would it be

The Masks of God set.

Oh, a set's not allowed? Then The Hero With a Thousand Faces, I guess, but its scope is limited and does not adequately portray the profound human need for the sacred and an origin.

I like non-fiction please recommend me some I haven't read too much so don't worry about suggesting basics. I also like fiction with real life meaning like Orwell. I'm currently reading Letters From A Stoic and I own Republic and a bunch of other Plato and Aristotle as well as The Nature Of Things.
