Give me some post-1990 poetry collections to check out!
Started a re-read of Winter of Our Discontent earlier this week. I remember liking it a lot, but it's pretty exposition-y at the start.
Related story: I took a course in Southern literature with Bofunk's favorite professor, Moss, my senior year. We read No County for Old Men, which I didn't much care for, and I pretty well ripped into it in a reflection paper. At the end, I wrote something to the effect of, "McCarthy will never be mentioned in the same breath as Faulkner or Steinbeck." Moss circled that comment and wrote, "Well... maybe Steinbeck."
Longstreet, a second lieutenant under Taylor, would serve as lieutenant general under Grant during the Civil War.
Been CRUSHIN some Jorge Luis Borges short fiction. Too bad I only know a select few Spanish words (mostly euphemisms for bangin).
Recently read "Silas Marner" again, which I really enjoyed. It inspired me to pick up "Middlemarch", which I'm halfway through. I think I like George Eliot more than Austen, Bronte, and her other English contemporaries.
