Why would you nominate more than one entry per ten year period? Just choose the only you think is best.

Okay thanks Paul. My reasons for asking are that I wasn't sure if, when reading this thread, that some posters had included more than one entry per decade - which is no doubt my confusion.
Also, I find some decades just too close to call (as I'm sure other members do); and, as Cat Lady pointed out, considering that the raison d'etre of this thread seems to be as the 'collection point' for books to include in the vote, that more than one nomination per decade would not prove problematic. (And yes, I realise that then leads to the question: how many entries per person per decade is appropriate

).
Here's a problematic example (of books I've read) that I've got:
1940's:
Antoine St Exupery - Le Petit Prince
Albert Camus - L'Etranger
Somerset Maugham - The Razor's Edge
John Steinback - The Pearl
All these books would probably be considered to be fairly routine to include in a Best of for that period.
