Tuesday   

This class will survey five works of fiction from the 20th century that are pivotal and enduring in the literary lexicon and the culture at large - but that are largely unread by modern audiences. We will discuss these books in the context of their time as well as consider their relevance to our current era. Please Note: This course has recommended supplies.
