I have to work with this type of "common core" educational lists, only at a college level. The reason for the more obscure books is that the list is built up in reverse. A committee came up with a bunch of discussion questions on topics they thought 10th graders should be exposed to and then had to go out and find books that met the questions. Its not a literature list by any means.
