Reading List for the Comps

I received my reading list for the comprehensive exams that will take place in February. I am very pleased with the reading list. I either presented/suggested to others to present/ or brought up 8 out of the 17 works during the course of our tutorial without knowing beforehand that the works would be on the exam. Pleased? Relieved? Smug? Yes, all of the above. Out of the entire list, there are only 2 works that I have not had a decent amount of exposure to already: The Woman Warrior by Hong-Kingston and Midnight's Children by Rushdie. I think that I can possibly do this thing. Possibly. I'm just excited that Hawthorne and M Shelley are both represented.
