August 29, 201312 yr As I work towards my MA in Lierature, which is hopefully a step towards piling it high and deep, I have a Literature and Culture class that will focus on the Kennedy assasination. My first assignmnet is a book written by one of JFK's mistresses called Mafia Moll. Judith Campbell Exner is the author. My other class is a Comparative Lit class centering around "unlikable characters". Required reading include Jude the Obscure, Lolita, Madam Bovary, and a few others. I am liking my choices this semester.

September 2, 201312 yr I haven't been able to contribute to this thread for 2 years, but I wish I could. Stay. Stay as long as you can.
September 2, 201312 yr I'm actually starting my 3rd week of classes tomorrow. My last semester in college. Taking my final journalism and T-comm classes that I don't want to take. Lots of shooting news packages and doing news stories, as well as anchoring our TV show. It's going to suck.

One of the things we are exploring is what does a person get out of reading. The discussion for any of these books will be interesting, but how to explain Lolita?
