Random Cool Things: All-Time Bestsellers
(Hat tip: Rolando Andrés Ramos via Twitter)
The Internet Public Library has a compilation of the best-selling books of all time, with The Bible and Chairman Mao’s Little Red Book duking it out for the top spot.
The fiction list is interesting, however, as it represents an interesting mix of classic literature and more than a few pop-culture page-turners:
Bach, Richard. Jonathan Livingstone Seagull
Blatty, William. The Exorcist
Benchley, Peter. Jaws
Caldwell, Erskine. God’s Little Acre
Heller, Joseph. Catch-22
Lee, Harper. To Kill a Mockingbird
McCullough, Colleen. The Thorn Birds
Metalious, Grace. Peyton Place
Mitchell, Margaret. Gone With the Wind
Orwell, George. 1984, Animal Farm
Puzo, Mario. The Godfather
Robbins, Harold. The Carpetbaggers
Salinger, J.D. Catcher in the Rye
