Book excerpt: "Literary Taste: How to Form It: With Detailed Instructions for Collecting a Complete Library of English Literature" by Arnold Bennett is a long essay. It includes a long list of recommended books to help a reader discover their taste in literature. Every item individually cost at the time of the book's publication. Both the essay and the list were very influential, although Bennett's decision to include only books originally written in English (along with a handful of Latin works) makes it extremely insular compared with most other attempts at compiling a literary canon.
