Sorry for the absence of posts. We know, we know—You’re looking forward to more. We’re on application deadlines this week, unfortunately. However, we would like to encourage everyone to read Jonathan Franzen’s essay on Alice Munro, which appeared as the cover story in this week’s New York Times Book Review. If you made it to the end of that sentence without clicking on the link to the essay, read it now!
As a new feature for Mondays, I will be listing the books I bought and the ones I read during the previous week.
Books bought:
Runaway by Alice Munro
Don’t Think of an Elephant by George Lakoff
Books read:
The Last Night of the Yankee Dynasty by Buster Olney
Applications are wretched. So is the GRE, which I have on Wednesday. Good luck!
