Last winter, the Columbia University Press's sprightly house organ, "The Pleasures of Publishing," undertook to select on the basis of a questionnaire sent out only to the literary and the learned the "Ten Most Boring Classics." Ten or fifteen years ago, "The Nation" was guilty of a somewhat similar stunt when it invited subscribers to confess which of the works that everybody has read were still closed books to them. Besides being guaranteed not to foster a sense of guilt, "The Nation's" new shelf might even, by its appeal to pure perversity, get the classics read.
