Robbins, Bruce Silver_nugget
Comparative Modern Fiction

Please keep in mind that this review is more than 5 years old.

This had to be the most rewarding class I'd taken at Columbia. Prof. Robbins teaches with passion and is genuinely concerned about getting his students to read the books. This class also had the best syllabus with novels ranging from Midnight's Children to The Lover. Sometimes lecture can get slightly boring, but everything considered, this class was great.

Workload:

a few essays, mandatory discussion sections, a not so easy midterm which was eventually curved, and a final.
