We had a lot of required books and can’t remember them all. The ones I remember the most ( some I only know the title in Spanish)
Beowulf
El canto del mio cid
Los nibelungos
Poppl vuh
100 years solitude
Don quixote
The iliad
Unbearable lightness of being ( this one messed me up for a while)
La vorágine
Maria
Rosario tijeras
Catcher in the rye
Romeo and Julieth
Tom Sawyer
Un cadaver en la biblioteca
In college, I only took the mandatory English classes ( engineering major), but I had to read
Troilus and Cressida ( Shakespeare)
The odyssey
All silent in the west front
Overall, I realized what I like ( and what I don’t like) to read, and through all the discussions it helped me see how each book is a representation of their time and to not judge a book written 100 years ago by today’s standards.
Edit: formatting attempt Disclaimer: graduated high school 20 years ago, might have mistyped titles here
