Reading list for Literary Enigmas

May Term will be here soon! With that in mind, here is the reading list in order of our readings. It is important that you get a hold of Laura as soon as possible because that's our first novel. The Bookstore has reasonably priced used copies of all our books.

1. Laura by Vera Caspary

2. Pale Fire by Vladamir Nabokov

3. The Translation of Dr. Apelles by David Treuer

We will also read some articles, all of which will be made available online (either on Moodle or here on the blog). There is NO course packet to purchase.

Lastly, we will also watch at least these 3 films:
Laura dir. by Otto Preminger
The Hoax dir. by Lasse Halström
Forbidden Lie$ dir. by Anna Broinowski

I look forward to meeting you all soon!
