I don't know what you hope to gain by brushing through these books at such a fast pace. You will probably be more confused afterwards than you were before.

Apparently some books are given significantly more coverage than others and some aren't read entirely which would make sense.

It's more of a philosophical/anthropological course rather than a literary one
