WORLD LITERATU RE

This is a list of notable novels by writers from all over the world, since 1800.
First according to the 6-model continent scheme, then the countries are ranked by alphabetical
order, then the authors by chronological order, using the year of their first book listed.

Some countries that span between two continents (Russia, Turkey, Egypt) are included randomly
in one of the continents or in both. That might be strange to find Tolstoy in an Asiatic literature
list, but I haven’t found a better way to organize the list, with the time I had.

Some countries non recognized by the ONU are included, according to geographical (Faeroe
Islands), linguistic (Catalonia), historical (Tibet, Palestine, Scotland), or cultural (French
Polynesia, Guadeloupe) criteria, or a mix of those concepts.

The lists of US, UK, Spain, Russia and France are restrained to just a selection of important
authors and books, as the principal aim of the list is to read out of the box.
Some binational authors (Khaled Housseini, Rohinton Mistry…) are included randomly in one of
the countries or in both. When considering the nationality of an author I’ve considered place of
birth, period of living on the country, and circumstances like wars and exiles. I’ve ignored
nationality changes at old age like Coetzee’s (From South Africa to Australia), Yourcenar (From
France to the US), or Vargas Llosa’s (From Peru to Spain). Also authors whose original country
doesn’t exist anymore as such, or has changed over history, might be included in two countries
(like Camus, included in both France and Algeria) or under the current name of the country (like
Kafka, listed as Czech)

Nobel Prize winners have an asterisk (*) attached to their names.

Marked in red, books I’ve actually read and I can humbly provide some insight.
