What's a good example of a really ancient book and/or novel? Like, Tale of Genji comes to mind, being arguably the first novel, but curious what other folks think of, too.

Le Morte d' Arthur seems like a good example, perhaps?

Context being trying to think of a good name for a package intended to work with old book formats, using the name of a famously old book as a cheeky nod to that usecase.

@xgranade The Egyptian Book of the Dead

Epic of Gilgamesh

@cthos It would be so hard for me to not read "Greg" every time, but it's a very good suggestion!
@xgranade @cthos Epic of Greg(amesh)?
@xgranade @cthos Greg and his bestie Enid,
@xgranade @cthos Alternatively, "Greg's Book of the Dead"?
@aud @cthos `epicgreg`
@xgranade @aud @cthos the successor library to `greg` which is retroactively referred to as `oldgreg`
@SnoopJ @xgranade Greg abu Steven, otherwise known as Mr. Universe?
