I just wrote my last undergrad exam last night and feel somewhat cathartic that it is over. I feel that now I can write and read without obligation literature that I want to read. And to cultivate my fiction portfolio, I asked my wife to recommend three books to read. They were Beecher Stowe's
Uncle Tom's Cabin, Dostoevsky's
The Idiot, and Oscar Wilde's
The Picture of Dorian Gray (note: these are not her top three novels, just novels recommended for me).
This post is selfish in nature (aren't all posts though?) in that I am now accountable to read these books. Hopefully I will be posting about them in the future.
