Come on Jackie! You can do it.There are many authors of whom you only have to read one.
Personally I would have chosen Dostojevski over Tolstoy. And I miss Beowolf, but I guess everyone would make a few changes in the list.
Father Steve,honestly,you done them all?

(there is a beautiful movie by Kobayashi called 'K(w)aidan', short ghost stories from the 19th century , one of which is called 'Hoichi with the ears', about the battle of the Genji (see list) against the Heike ; fascinating! The movie dates from the 60-70 -ties. It might be hard to trace. But is so beautiful.)
And I saw a fantastic woodprint on the subject in the Leiden Museum.
