aggienaut | Every Country's Most Translated Book

So this morning I came across this cool chart:

Mostly it's novels but there's a few that aren't, a chess guide for Latvia, a book on evolution for Kenya. By virtue of the Scientologists madly evangelizing his work an L Ron Hubbard book is apparently the United Stateses. I'm kind of surprised they didn't list the Bible for Israel, and apparently by virtue of JRR Tolkien being born in South Africa they list The Hobbit for SA which I think is a bit shlonky -- I had to just google this and yes he lived there till he was 3 but he apparently rarely mentioned it and it was very incidental to his life.

I currently have read the most translated books from: Colombia, Brazil, Scotland, England, Spain, Nigeria, South Africa (see above), maybe Russia (I may have read Anna Karenina in high school, I forget, I certainly read a bunch of Tolstoy)

My first inclination on seeing this list was that I'd love to try to read every country's most translated book .. but then taking a few for example (like Venezuela's Dona Barbara) it seems like its going to be really hard to find (I mean you really can buy any book on amazon but finding it in a library or on audible is another story).

But then I thought of a great solution! If I remember to check this chart before I travel, surely every country's most translated book is available actually in-country! So now I have a new specific souvenir quest when I travel!
