Michael Dirda's 100 Best Comic Novels

The list was originally a column in the Washington Post. MD said that it isn't strictly limited to novels (There's collections of short stories and at least one autobiography) and it's limited to one book per author, else it might have been made up wholly of Pratchett and P G Wodehouse. For reasons to do with how I added the titles, they are not in the same order as in MD's original list. Also a couple of works are listed under titles different from those given in MD's list.
