Separate the Ones you do from the Original List.

I see it as a way to peek into other peoples’ libraries and to see what they value most. People will put the first books that come to mind.
Tolstoy Woolf Dostoyevsky Fitzgerald Updike Kuprin Dumas Bunin Faulkner Steinbeck Camus Maugham Shaw Solzenitsin Boll Remarque and may be a few more that have already slipped my mind. I love them, they’re a nosegay that impart various light rays into my being. Unfortunately, I’m not acquainted much with the ones in the Wise List 😈

I guess you’re right, but I thought maybe, when I first saw it, that this was some kind of game or something… dense, I tell you.
