L&T Readings for First-Year Students Enrolling in Fall 2025
Our summer reading assignments for this year are:
- Mary Shelley's Frankenstein: The 1818 Text (Penguin) (ISBN-13: 978-0143131847). Students should purchase and read Frankenstein before arriving in Annandale.
- Students are also encouraged to purchase Sophocles I: Antigone, edited by David Grene and Richmond Lattimore (University of Chicago Press) (ISBN-13: 978-0226311517). Students should purchase this book and bring it with them in August, but there will be no assigned readings from this book before the program begins. The book will also be available for purchase at the College bookstore during the program.
