This is the first step in a series of cataloging exercises focused on the top 100 books of all time, as highlighted by the Guardian (UK) in 2002. The list consists of the 100 best works of fiction, as determined from a vote by 100 noted writers from 54 countries as released by the Norwegian Book Clubs. Don Quixote was named the top book in history but otherwise no ranking was provided. This timeline clearly shows a weight of "best books" toward more contemporary times, though the spread ranges from 1800 BC to 1995 (in this list).
