Lord of the rings is actually 6 books, you should get 6 times the credit.

Looking at the list I'm thinking. These critics are just book fags. "Lets make an obscure list, but throw a couple of bones out for the people that made it to freshman college english lit."

What is the significance of choosing 1923?

This list is stupid.

Lord of the Rings

Well as for me I've read Lord of the Flies, Catcher in the Rye, The Lord of the Rings (which is ACTUALLY only one book published in 3 parts) and I'm in the process of getting a copy of The Lion Witch and The Wardrobe. So I guess that's 4 for me.
