The Norton Anthology of World Masterpieces

The Norton Anthology of World Masterpieces | Maynard Mack

I've been waking up at 3am for as long as I can remember, babies notwithstanding, and I'm usually up until 4:30 or 5am. I'm a grumpy human being... LOL
I read an article that says to get up and read something boring. I figured this was a good place to start, my old leftovers from a lame attempt at a college education!

What's the most boring book you've ever read?

Chrys My organic chemistry book was always guaranteed to put me to sleep, I ended up dropping the class after I changed majors and realized I didn‘t have to suffer through it 5y

IamIamIam @Chrys That does sound pretty dry!! I'm glad you didn't suffer too long! Lol, this always knocked me out when I was pregnant but thinking about pulling it out again is making my skin crawl!

StephBengtson I have that book too! It was for my college English class and I still love flipping through it every now and then. 7y

Natasha.C.Barnes @StephBengtson I have it from an early high school Great Books class (long story) but now I can't remember what I've read that was only a selection of the full text and what I've read in full! I remember Gilgamesh the best I think. I forgot how paper thin the pages are!! 😆 7y

Natasha.C.Barnes @StephBengtson I haven't looked through it in years but I feel like I should just read this start to finish and I'll be a much better educated person, especially from the point of non-western literature and history. 7y

StephBengtson I love the Emily Dickinson and Baudelaire sections. 😊 7y

I fell in love with Emily Dickinson in my college freshman World Lit course. I made these silhouette paintings as an artistic interpretation of "My Life had stood -- A Loaded Gun". Oh art school. #poetrybooks #augustofpages #bookphotochallenge
