Diese BBC-Liste habe ich schon oft gesehen. Die Zusammenstellung der Titel fand ich aber höchst zufällig - viel englischsprachige Literatur, Verdopplungen (z.B. alle Werke von Shakespeare und dann noch mal Hamlet). Mir fehlt auch der Schlüssel nach dem die Liste erstellt wurde. Nachdem ich aber die Liste jetzt wieder mal bei El Tragaligbros gesehen habe, wollte ich endlich mal wissen, wie viele Bücher ich davon gelesen habe.
