Nerd Alert
So good things (books) have been coming in threes lately.
Last weekend, my mom let me paw through the publisher's proofs and other discards that she gets to paw through at her local bookstore's book club. I chose:
Mockingbird: A Portrait of Harper Lee, Charles J. Shields
Their Eyes Were Watching God, Zora Neale Hurston
Book by Book: Notes on Reading and Life, Michael Dirda
Then at the library doing research for class this week, I picked out three more books:
Insurrections: Approaches to Resistance in Compositional Studies, Andrea Greenbaum, ed.
Opening Spaces: Critical Pedagogy and Resistance Theory in Composition, Joe Marshall Hardin
Audience Expectations and Teacher Demands, Robert Brooke and John Hendricks
And yesterday, at my favorite used book store (the one nestled on the same road as the strip club, the body shop, and the bail bonds place), I chose three more:
Herself Surprised, Joyce Cary
The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, Carson McCullers
Amusing Short Stories of...Death, Claude Santoy
I suppose I am leaning toward the triumverate.
