Everyone recognizes that something is wrong here, so I think the explanation for this list is this: 1)They are listing trendsetting novels, presumably in the sense of having an influence on what others (including the best-selling flavors of the day) would write. They are not necessarily trying to list important literature. 2) The focus is on English language novels. 3) Also I guess this assignment may have been handed to almost any ad hoc BBC employee committee.

No Tolstoy, no Dostoevsky and did that really say Mark Shelley wrote Frankenstein? .......This is the BBC!

They did not even list the world's first novel, Don Quixote, or the first English novel, Robinson Crusoe. Surely the first novels ever written are influencial, right?

I never get tired of reading Robinson Crusoe. What makes it all the more enjoyable is that it was banned in the Soviet Union at one stage, I do believe, but I read Stalin gave a copy in Russian to one of his children.

Exactly

What happened to Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein and Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand? How about Huckelberry Finn by Mark Twain and The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood?

How have novels written within the last 10 years shaped our world? This is a list of somebody’s favourite reads which I appreciate but definitely not world shaping.

Good video. But where's Crime and Punishment, War and Peace, A man called Ove, etc.. Hell, Dracula popularised the vampire genre, which brought us Castlevania, Twilight and Nosferatu.

@lisahall1700 2 года назад

You left out The Bible, the Koran, Shakespeare for the Diary of Briget Jones? I mean it was cute but hardly world shaping.

@DanKaraJordan 2 года назад

Bridget Jones' Diary is literally just a retelling of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice. It was an influenced novel, not an influencial novel. I do agree with omiting Shakespeare and the Bible, etc. because they are not novels. That said, they did not even list the world's first novel, Don Quixote, or the first English novel, Robinson Crusoe. Surely they are influencial.

No Dostoyevsky, no Tolstoy, no Cervantes, no Kafka, no Zola, no Flaubert…. What kind of shitty list is this? Ah, of course, the crappy biased BBC. Utter excrement, even if there are some great books here and there. How shameful really.
