List is too full of modern lit - how could a group of BRITISH librarians come up with a list that excluded Shakespeare?
You're right. It's almost as if nothing worth reading was written before 1850.

I liked Chaucer but then I like odd writings. When we read it in English Lit, I was one of a few who got what he was saying. I doubt if high schoolers read it now.
