Jeez. Made a folder. This better start making sense.

Uh, MJ?
Like: completion of all Tel Quel works published before 1970 or whatever?I guess Surrealist Novels is something I'm going to try to hit pretty hard even though some of them are going to be awful, inevitably.

Do either of of those two come in list form?
I'm not sure, but the "Nonauthor-orientated Completionist lists" seems to be where my next goal fits in so here it is: I have now got it into my head to read from the first to the last page the mammoth of a book, The Norton Anthology of Poetry. Although I do love poetry, I am not generally that much into poetry but this Anthology is a challenge too tempting to resist and my obsessive nature to complete the reading of such a book is already taking over. So the journey begins...
Talking of Norton, I love those Norton Critical Editions . I guess one of my long-term goals is to buy and read them all, but there are so many of them, that I should perhaps not put that down here as an official goal...
I love those Norton Anthologies. We used them in high school and it was so much fun to turn the onionskin pages.

Each with slightly different supplemental material and essays. So if you really want to be a completist you have to read every edition of each one.
