Around the World in 100 Books (1316 books)

... or so.

Imagine you were planning a trip around the world, and had the opportunity to consult with up to 100 authors (dead or alive) where to go and what to see. So whom would you ask, what places would you pick -- and what books most epitomize each of these places in your mind? What books would you read in order to, as it were, "get into the spirit" of each of these places?

Several books per country are OK, but no more than a single book per city or region, please: Which is the ONE book that, at a snap judgment -- without taking any time to think -- is the first to come to your mind as associated with a given place?

(Nonfiction books are fine, too, but please no travel guides -- this is about getting inspiration for travel from literary sources OTHER than travel guides.)
