LITERATURE: Some Good Additions

Well, I got fourteen books for ten-fifty plus four bucks for 'early bird' rights. Here's the take:

Running with Scissors by Augusten Burroughs
The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer
The Idiot by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Tom Jones by Henry Fielding
Far from the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy
A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen
Elmer Gantry by Sinclair Lewis
The Captive by Marcel Proust
A Summons to Memphis by Peter Taylor
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennessee Williams
Orlando by Virginia Woolf
A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf
        And, an exciting find in Living to Tell the Tale by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Five of the books were on my "To Buy" list so that added to the delight of my library jaunt and the joy of books at such great prices. Then I went out to dinner and spent thirty dollars on one meal that'll be gone by tomorrow.

    You’re welcome. I don’t praise easily, and I’m no expert of the art, but I know good writing when I see it and believe that it should be acknowledged and encouraged.

    BTW, so you don’t think you’ve picked up a stalker, I’m an Ersinghaus alumnus.
