British Newspaper, The Telegraph has published an article called 'The Perfect Library', in which it lists what is supposedly the 'perfect' reading list.
It lists classics such as Gullivers Travel's, Jane Eyre and War and Peace; romantic fiction such as Gone with the wind, Dr. Zhivago and Rebecca; and sci-fi such as 2001: A Space Odyssy, Do androids dream of Electric Sheep? and 20,000 Leagues under the sea.
It also compiles lengthy lists in other genres such as Crime, History, Biography and Childrens reading - where (unsurprisingly) Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter feature prominently.
Sometimes you may be stuck for an idea as to what to read. Maybe you've missed out on a lot of 'essential' reading and need to catch up. Perhaps this list will help inspire some of your future reading and turn you on to something you havent read before. Why not check it out and see what all the fuss is about? Are these books 'essential' to you?
