There is a lot of great stuff on my list, culled from a much larger list of not-as-great stuff. (Which, in theory, I am supposed to have read all of. In practice, even the department administration tells us not to try. I've got about 7/8ths of it down.)
My year has held study groups since last spring, which has been very helpful, but they're not official or anything; just a group of us who were all interested in finding out what people in other specialties had to say. Plus there's lots of solitary work. (Which reminds me, I need to check out some Ian Watt this week, 'cause I know practically nothing about the rise of the novel...)
