Squee!

TIME magazine has published a list of the all-time top 100 novels*. I've read twenty of them and seen movie adaptations of four or five more.

But I was pleasantly surprised to see that Snow Crash was on the list! Woot!

EDIT: Oh, wait, make that twenty-one books. I missed Things Fall Apart on the first pass.


*English-language from 1923 to the present, that is, which in my opinion does not merit the "all-time" description.

Wow. I'm an English major and I've only read 8 of those books. One of my favorite books of all time is Siddartha which is excluded because it was published in 1922 and originally written in German. Still... definitely one of the 100 all-time top novels.
Ummm... hi, by the way. I'm from [livejournal.com profile] transmet. You'd asked about showing Transmet to your grandfather, so I thought I'd drop by your LJ. Thanks again for the icon usage!
