Larry McCaffery's "20th Century's Greatest Hits: 100 English Language Books of Fiction"
McCaffery teaches American literature at San Diego State University. This is exactly the type of list that I find especially valuable, because prepared by someone who clearly has a broad literary knowledge and critical appreciation, and has the boldness to draw upon all of it. It’s so rare to find someone who’ll bring "genre" and underground literature into comparison with the received canon. [Webmaster’s note: this list was suggested by a user, and the wide range of authors on here makes it a pretty interesting list.]
