Link to June 20 PW Online post.Excerpt: Topping the list of the 100 best books are Cormac McCarthy’s The Road, J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Toni Morrison’s Beloved, Mary Karr’s The Liars’ Club and Philip Roth’s American Pastoral. The list features a few less obvious choices, too, including The Giver by Lois Lowry, Jimmy Corrigan by Chris Ware and The Predators’ Ball by Connie Bruck.
Other lists featured in EW's 1,000th issue, at newsstands today, trumpet other genres of "new classics", including best movies, TV shows, and music albums. Sure to be tempest-in-a-teapot controversial!
At a glance, it looks as though only the best movies list is available online. According to PW, you'll have to wait until the first week of July to access the best books list.
