* Different Focus: It's crucial to understand the different focuses of these awards:
* Nobel Prize: Recognizes a lifetime of achievement and contribution to literature.
* Pulitzer Prize: Awards excellence in journalism, literature, music, and drama.
* Giller Prize: Honors the best Canadian novel of the year.
I hope this comprehensive list is helpful! If you have more specific interests (like books in a particular genre or authors from a specific country), let me know, and I can tailor a list for you.
