2019 yilning oxirida — XXI asrning ikkinchi o‘n yilligi tugash arafasida Buyuk Britaniyaning The Guardian kundalik gazetasi yangi yuz yillikning 100 ta eng yaxshi kitobini e’lon qildi. Reytingga 2000 yildan keyin chop etilgan turli janrlardagi asosan ingliz tilidagi adabiyotlar kiritilgan bo‘lsa-da, ular orasida tarjima asarlar ham talaygina.
Reytingning top-3 taligidan belorus adibasi, Nobel mukofoti sovrindori Svetlana Aleksiyevichning «Utopiya ovozi» badiiy-hujjatli seriyasidagi «Sekond hend vaqti» kitobi ham o‘rin olgan. Asarda GULAG lagerlarida yashagan insonlarning taqdiri va SSSRning qulashi hikoya qilinadi. Reytingda Bob Dilan, Kadzuo Isiguro, Olga Tokarchuk, Elis Manro kabi Nobel mukofoti sovrindorlarining asarlari ham o‘rin olgan.
