I just checked the Modern Library's 100 Best Novels of the 20th Century. It was limited to 400 novels published by Random House.
The top five are 1. Ulysses 2. The Great Gatsby 3. A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man 4. Lolita 5. Brave New World They seem to love Joyce as they also have Finnegans Wake as #77! Modern Library Top 100 - Penguin Random House |

.........I saw the Lolita movie - it was good FOR ITS TIME, but nothing compared to today's Cinementology. .........Maybe new versions of these 2 movies would be interesting? |

I found Ulysses to be almost impossible to read. Sentences that go on for pages.

The Complete Works of Shakespeare (I had a really old hard-cover edition of this from the late 1800s but it got ruined in a hurricane)
An Anthology of Banned Books (by various authors) - 8,578 pages, in a digital file, which I'd use on my solar-powered e-reader Whatever other 3 books contain the most pages, in paper. I'd read them and use the pages to help light fires so I could cook my fish on my deserted island. Hopefully I'd be rescued before I finished them all. |

WILSON!!!!!
Could we switch the book to another venue? I'd rather have access to TOTV'S. It's a mystery, it's also always a work in progress. I would love to have a Political Section in my Island Version of TOTV'S. I would have to moderate myself. I've been behaving for so long I think it's time to mix things up a little bit before I go for my three-hour trip on The Minnow! |

It wouldn't make much difference which books I brought along. Within thirty minutes of arrival I would be saying, "Where in h*** are my reading glasses?".
