This is the most unusual list I've found so far, and that makes it very very interesting. I'll be especially looking forward to your review of William Blake.

Very cool choices. I have to agree with Nymeth, the most unusual list so far...but I love it! Good luck!

Unfortunately, I cannot comment about your choices listed here. But, I did notice Crime and Punishment in your Chunkster Challenge which I also read for that particular Challenge. I am a great fan of Russian Literature.

It was fun to try to read of the "renard" in your first post; my French is very rusty, but I still love it.

Gotta say this is a really different list!! Although I have never heard of them, I can't wait for your reviews! Nothing like broadening my horizons!

Fascinating list. I love William Blake, though I haven't read anything by him in quite awhile.

Fascinating choices, especially William Blake, though I haven't read anything of his lately.

Very different indeed. I'll be reading from the Brothers Grimm as well. Good luck with your reading.
