Modern Greek Literature ⁺⋆˖⊹ ࣪ ﹏𓊝﹏𓂁﹏⊹ ࣪
I created this list because I feel like Greece has been obscured by the long shadow of its classical heritage… there is more to Greek literature than the Odyssey and the Iliad. This will be updated with more books once PageBound allows a feature to transfer Greek-written titles from the Goodreads database onto here… right now it is a little tricky, as PB’s database isn’t as comprehensive as GR’s.

Marilyn Monroe's Personal Library
Marilyn Monroe was known as an avid reader with a deep love of literature. She took literature courses at UCLA, married a playwright, and was (in?)famously photographed reading Ulysses in a park. It's said that her divorce to Arthur Miller stemmed from an incident in which he insulted her intelligence. Supposedly, she amassed a 1000+ book collection at the height of her reading that she was very proud of. Here are the books known to be a part of her beloved personal library.
