NPR's Dick Meyer has posted his list of the best 100 novels in English:

I am not a learned or prolific reader of novels. My taste is probably medium-brow, male and parochial in many ways. Tough. It's my list. I included two books that probably aren't novels: Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and Fabulous Small Jews. Lots of innovative, modern stuff didn't make it because I am not good at reading it.

Boy, I love it when people are unapologetically honest about their limits and shortcomings.
