Well I am pretty much you but maybe several years junior. I went to a state school, was obsessively focused only on my field of study, and scoffed at the idea of exploring anything else (save for some Jung and Nietzsche).
But as I’m “aging” into the real world after grad school, I’ve similarly realized how silly it was to turn my head to literature.
Curious if you’d be willing to recommend a classic, or share the genres that you’ve been enjoying.
- greenhearth 9mo agoI don't understand the "silly" part. Classic lit is amazing and also good for you. I am a late comer to it as well and I'm so glad that I have discovered it. I am finishing Ulysses now and it absolutely rocks.
- j_bum 9mo agoI realize I mistyped, I shouldn’t have said “turn my head to” I mean “ignore” but was being verbose.
