Honestly I'm surprised about this in a couple of ways. Firstly Ulysses, while being the most important thing to happen to literature since Don Quixote, isn't exactly well recieved. Voting for Jacqueline Wilson and James Joyce in one poll seems a little juxtaposed to me. Secondly, Stephen King, regardless what I think of him, is the best selling modern author ever, JK Rowling doesn't even come close. So why has he only got one book on the list? I mean, I can't think of a better choice but why only one?
