The ones bolded are the ones I've read. The Diary of Anne Frank used to be on this list; that one I read in the original Dutch. There are a lot fewer bolded than I expected. Still, I shelved damn near all of these at one point or another. One of these days, I'm going to try for a list of 100 books that I've read.
