I'm sure about Moby Dick but what about Woolf's novels? Or Graham Greene, W.Somerset Maugham, or Nabokov? Faulkner I assume yes; what about Ralph Ellison, Wallace Stegner, or Marguerite Duras? Are the ancient Classics included, and those called "modern classics"? I'd like to join, I will link as soon as I have written a post. Thank you.
