Might I suggest that a list of authors who died in 1938 might be of more widespread interest? They will be the ones who will enter the public domain for the majority of us next week (but not, alas, in the US).

given that MobileRead's servers are hosted in Canada, I would argue that in fact authors entering the public domain in life + 50 countries are of great practical relevance here.
but there's no reason not to include authors who died in 1938 in this list as well.
