French Literature Final Boss
=== Work in progress ===
Based on my original post on having quests for French Literature, I made starter packs but I'm thinking we just need a big dump! Thanks to everyone that participated and still do!
This list covers books across time by French authors (needs to be discussed and refined but hopefully can be inclusive and incentivize crossovers with the Francophonie mon amour list!)
Please be indulgent while I work on it and hop in the convo!

This list comprises numerous French classics, from romantic epics, to realist critiques of society, to philosophical fiction, to scandalous stories, poetry, & more! I’ll be updating it sporadically.

Essential Francophone Lit: Classics & Contemporary
A collection of acclaimed classic and contemporary Francophone literature. I chose to classify as Francophone rather than French in order to include authors who wrote in French but were/are not of French nationality, especially authors from colonised countries. Non-exhaustive as I'm not an expert I am keeping this list to one book per author but suggestions very welcome! :)
