proximoceptionProcrastination/"one plausible definition of insanity"-defying entry.
So though the core 10 part of my reading plan mostly fell apart maybe I can carry it over to next year but make it a bit more specific, with one particular book by each:
Ivan Ilych and Other Stories, tr. Pevear & Volokhonsky
Swann's Way, tr. Davis (switching to Moncrieff the second she flags)
Oxford Authors Wordsworth
OWC Shelley's Major Works (or Reiman's? Bloom's supplemented with The Cenci?)
Riverside or Signet Selected Emerson
Norton CE Leaves of Grass
Final Harvest
Palm at the End of the Mind
Kafka's Complete Stories and Parables, tr. Muirs et al.
None terribly long, most of them in detachable segments so I can string them out over the year. I'll just line them up by my bed. Maybe replacing the Kafka with his Diaries, which I've been meaning to finish. And I'll be reading some Shakespeare plays for Comps so that should cover him.
Might as well add Invisible Cities and Ficciones since some time has elapsed. They'll help de-anglamerify my reading year.
And Little, Big if the anniversary edition finally comes out.
