Radcliffe’s 100 Best Novels

On July 21, 1998, the Radcliffe Publishing Course released its own list of the century's top 100 novels. The Radcliffe Publishing Course compiled its list at the request of the Modern Library and formally presented its list to the Modern Library's Board Chairman Christopher Cerf on July 24 in Cambridge.
  • Character: 100 twentieth century works written in English, ranked, limited to fiction (including children's fiction).
  • Bias: Academic, reflecting the tastes of the students in the course, presumably colored by scholastic reading requirements.
  • Flaws: Inclusion errors (admits non-fictional and 19th century works into its canon).
