Mako, how do you choose your texts?
Sounds like your shakespeare, at least, is decided by department or school committee
Well you did see me ranting about how dumb symbols are.lots of talk about 'literature' but i don't see any Dan Brown mentioned
Sounds great. Do you teach all four grade levels? If so, you can pretty much cover anything you wantYeah but outside of that we have autonomy. 9-basically whatever. 10 world lit. 11 American. 12 British. Our librarian is pretty good at finding money for class sets of novels that we want to teach and there’s only 4 of us so we just teach what we want and try not to step on each other’s toes. We had a lady a few years ago that taught a shitload of Ayn Rand so that freedom isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be. I wasn’t sad to see her retire.
Doesn't have to be intellectual. Lots of intersections here between people's high school experiences, professional lives, and what they enjoy reading.
If, like a guy I spoke to today, you haven't read a book since your deployment to Bosnia in 1996, maybe today is the day. I bet you can get some good recommendations around here
I want a recommendation. I'm looking for a story, preferably fiction, with good character development and no story lines involving child abuse or abject tragedy. Bonus points if there's not a war as part of the plot.
Basically I'm looking for an escape that has a little more substance than a beach trash novel.

What is a barve?look i've only got two things on my mind today. 1 - getting my ear unclogged so i can hear out of. 2 - barves.
It takes a depraved sort of person to really love donna tartt. I told you already but I'm designing an entire course around that novel, lolI am enjoying The Secret History tho I am a philistine who can barely read or talk or write
What is a barve?
Ugh back to grading. See it's not all fun and reading after all
I can only worry so much about deacdixieboy's health.braves game at 5:00. expecting them to go full atlanta sports franchise mode and choke tonight.
