Your suggestion for the list of 2 classic book from each of the countries

Respected Professionals

Can you tell me the list of good classic books. Two classic books from each of the countries of the world. Our Boss is asking me to keep it for display in the library, to create the interest and bring readers.

Will be grateful for your suggestion

Regards Rebecca

Dear Ms. pc Rebecca Lalhlimpuii

Thanks for your post.I appreciate your employer's attitude however, there are certain subtle issues which need to be addressed. First what type of classics you want to retain and whether in original form or any adapted version. For Instance, we have The Ramayana & The Mahabharatha which are quite voluminous and written in Sanskrit. For your Library do you want to keep the original text or any adaptation. Similarly, in my childhood, my father bought me a book Lambs' Tales from Shakespeare which had all the works of Shakespeare in abridged form for school children. So you have to decide what are the types of materials you want to keep and in what Languages.Incidentally, the Sahitya Academy publish the Classics and selective and collective works of Nobel Laureates in English. So you can choose from that list as well.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray
