After two years of careful consideration，Robert Mc Crum has reached a conclusion on his selection of the 100 greatest novels written in English.Take a look at a few in his list：
   The Pilgrim's Progress by John Banyan （1678）
   A story of a man in search of truth told with the simple clarity and beauty of Bunyan's prose makes this an English classic.
   Robinson Crusoe by Daniel Defoe （1719）
   By the end of the 19th century，no book in English literary history had enjoyed more translations like this one.This world-famous novel is a complex literature that one cannot resist.
   Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift （1726）
   A great work that's been repeatedly printed，Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels comes third in our list of the best novels written in English.
   Clarissa by Samuel Richardson （1748）
   Clarissa is a tragic heroine，pressured by her dishonorable family to marry a wealthy man she dislikes，in the book that Samuel Johnson described as "the first book in the world that shows the knowledge about the human heart".
   Tom Jones by Henry Fielding （1749）
   Tom Jones is a classic English novel that gets the spirit of its age and whose characters are well-known since they reflect the society at that time.
   Emma by Jane Austen （1816）
   Jane Austen's Emma is her most outstanding work，mixing the best parts of her early books with a deep sense of feelings.
   The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket by Edgar Allan Poe （1838）
   Edgar Allan Poe's only novel—a classic adventure story with supernatural elements—has fascinated generations of writers.
