Books This Ph. D. Has Read (And Remembered)

A range of the novels, plays, and other full length works I have read and remember. I've included both academic and non-academic books, even the children's literature that can be so important to a person's development. You'll be able to tell easily that my Ph.D. work involved epics. Enjoy...and try reading some of the more obscure things. I'm glad I read just about every one of the items on this list (except Madame Bovary....yuck!) :)
