Sorry, but I wouldn't like something like that to be in the list. :P
This is exactly the problem I have with Dostojevski (I won't even try the "English" spelling, I'll just go with the "Finnish" one), why can't you just come up with a name and be done with it!!!

Also, libraries order a lot of copies cause it's something they need to have in their collection. Nobody loans it tho...

A a long as "the catcher in the rye" and LOTR are there then everything is cool. they will both be in the top 5 def.
