Which work is associated with the 800 Literature, belleslettres category?

• A. Morgan. Theory of the Gene
• B. Raine. The Year One; Poems
• C. Stein erg. Basic Judaism
• D. Strachey. Queen Victoria

Answer: (B)

In library organization, 800 covers literature, including belles lettres, which means poetic and other literary works valued for artistic expression rather than scientific content. A poetry collection like The Year One; Poems fits this category because it is a literary work written in verse. The other options are not poetry: Theory of the Gene is a science text about genetics, Basic Judaism is part of religion, and Queen Victoria is a biography. So poetry belongs under 800, belles lettres.
