Listopia > Books That Have Stood the 100 Year Test
C.S. Lewis thought that we should read old books, and that the impact of a book can’t really be judged until they’ve been out for one hundred years. Ironically, that excludes his works for the time being. Each year, I want to read a couple books that have been out for one hundred years.
