Ten books for one review?  How does that work?  Let's see, the book plus 9 other reviews or discussions?

There's always shit cited in footnotes or the bibliography that needs chased down for accuracy, or that you haven't read but which forms a part of the argument.  It's not really like a literary review at all.

Ah.  BTW, good luck with the tenure interview!

Thanks... it's over now.  I think I fairly rocked it, but won't find out until december.  It's a public school, it has to go through 3 more committees!

Finished Confederacy of Dunces last night and I enjoyed it quite a bit.  That Ignatius is not a sympathetic character though.  Can't say what I expected from a Pulitzer winner but this wasn't it.  I'd recommend it though, a good read.
