What is the most famous book written in your country?

[Tsveti]

I am interested in what are the most famous books in different countries. I'm from Bulgaria, so Under the Yoke by Ivan Vazov

[Christine]

In Germany that's maybe "Die Blechtrommel" (The Tin Drum) by Guenter Grass. I liked the movie.

[Rissa (rissasreading)]

The Handmaid's Tale probably - Canada

[Annika]

I'd say Perfume by Süßkind and The neverending story by Ende in Germany

[Kaitlyn]

My first thought was “oh Harry Potter for sure” before remembering I’m in fact, not in the UK😭

But for the states my guess is Great Gatsby

[Anthony]

Of Mice and Men , USA

[Sheila]

Difficult to pick one - USA

Gone with the wind
The adventures of Huckleberry Finn
To kill a mockingbird

[Teju]

[Abi]

Harry Potter **

[Denim ♡]

nah, my people can do many things. Writing epic novels, I believe, isn't one of those things!

I think for the UK Agatha Christie and Enid Blyton are much more famous than "Harry Potter". As anybody who was born before 1990.

[Andrushka]

The Prophet, Khalil Gebran

[Sapphir]

For Germany, "Der Steppenwolf" by Hermann Hesse comes to mind, or maybe something by Goethe ("Faust"?)? Recently, Cornelia Funke's books have been quite popular, too, I guess.

[Christine]

I'm from Germany, but I've never heard from Cornelia Funke. Don't you think that Guenter Grass and Siegfried Lenz are much more famous?

[Ari]

probably dr jekyll and mr hyde - scotland (or maybe harry potter if that counts since jk was living in edinburgh around the time?)

[Stefanus]

Bumi Manusia by Pramoedya Ananta Toer. I'm from Indonesia

[Steven]

Ray Bradbury- Fahrenheit 451
Frank Herbert- Dune

[mαtildε]

I’m just going to name some authors: Fernando Pessoa, José Saramago, António Damásio, Camões, And so so so so so so many more.
Can you guess my country?

"Het Achterhuis" better known internationally as "Anne Frank's Diary" - the Netherlands
