Thoughts? Is this a valid itinerary for exploring literature?

No. Use any of the charts posted here, read how to read a book, or bloom's western canon...

Does a book which contains all books which do not contain themselves contain itself?

It flips back and forth between containing itself and not containing itself at infinite speed.

It's probably fine, most of the books you'll find on lit charts you'll probably find in there too. There's probably some good stuff that lit doesn't know about, and probably some crap that doesn't deserve to be there.

There are too many books to read to read them all in one lifetime anyways, so if you can't decide I guess it's as good as anything.

Many of the books in here are short stories and novellas like Turn of the Screw and Sailor Who Fell From Grace With the Sea that you could read in a day.
