Очень интересно? Вы все эти книги осилили?
Нет, конечно. Но в свое время я читал из этого списка довольно активно. Когда только начинал учить язык и доступа копирайнтным книгам не было, читал в основном классику со словарем. Это было в России. Потом в ЮАР, когда начал собирать этот список, за 3 года была прочитана основная часть из этого списка. Некоторые авторы прочитаны почти полностью: Jeffrey Archer, Robin Cook, Wilbur Smith, John Grisham, Artur Haily. В 2007 году в США на fiction уже времени не было, перешел в основном на профессиональную литературу и журналы...
