Best wishes to everyone here with grad studies/whatever else you end up doing!

Noire et Étrange reacted to Crow T. Robot in grad school prep reading list
I'm planning on attacking:
Capitalism and Desire by Todd McGowan (one of the most lucid explicators and imaginative appliers of Lacanian theory out there) Some Bataille--thinking about The Accursed Share and Literature and Evil A charitable hate read of The Democracy of Objects by Levi Bryant Our Aesthetic Categories by Sianne Ngai Something on the Russian Revolution--maybe Orlando Figes's A People's Tragedy? And, because I hate myself, Capital (Volume 1) and as much of Écrits as I can get through... Re. catching up on theory reading, I'd definitely second @LexHex's suggestion on the Norton Anthology of Theory and Criticism. I have a syllabus from an excellent theory class I took that used that book for all its readings if anyone is interested!

Noire et Étrange reacted to miss-prufrock in 20th/21st C. Americanist Roll Call
I'm primarily interested in the 20th century--suburbia and sprawl, Asian-Americans, and confessional poetry. I'm starting out, but I am interested in performativity, disability studies with a focus on mental illness, religion, gender, and fandom. When it comes to the 21st century, I do have a focus on comics and graphic novels, as well as fandom. I do love Modern British Literature and Romantic poetry. Some of my favorites come from Japanese literature.
Yes, literary theory is also a weakness, so I'd like to take the Literary Theory and Aesthetics course. I wasn't an English major as an undergrad; I only took lots of English electives and two Comparative Literature electives. And since I'm from the Philippines, I'd love to immerse myself in postcolonial theory.
