He also spoke to a recent blog post American Open Cultures : the ten books were chosen by a panel of 125 famous writers including Jonathan Franzen, Stephen King, Norman Mailer, Annie Proulx, in short people from a certain level.

The results of those interviews is included in the Top Ten , edited by Zane and published in 2007 in the USA, but never in Italy (what a shame).
But as ranking was compiled? Each of the 125 divi respondents were asked to list their top ten in order of preference. Then each first book Prize were awarded 10 points, 9 on the second and so on. And here's the result: for our prestigious voters, the best book ever written is (drum rĂ¹llino) Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy. Silver Medal to Madame Bovary by Flaubert.
