A Note of Interest: Modern Library's 100 Greatest Novels

As a curiosity, I came across Modern Library's highly subjective list of the 100 greatest novels published in English.  What you might find interesting is that two of the novels in this class, Wide Sargasso Sea (#94) and Kim (#78) made the list, and two other writers did as well V.S. Naipaul (represented by A House for Mr. Biswas and A Bend in the River) and Joseph Conrad (for Nostromo and Lord Jim).  And you thought you weren't getting an education!  You can find the complete list here: http://www.randomhouse.com/modernlibrary/100bestnovels.html
