Hi--

I was skimming "most recent activity" when I saw that you had cataloged a book by Catherine Belsey. I am particularly fond of a small book by Belsey called Critical Practice that I read during my school years. Belsey was brilliant, first among equals. We share 108 books, but really some of the best of my reads. Stop by some time and take a look. I'll be back to look at your library too. When it comes to books,I buy them faster than I can read them too.

I also have Blessing the Boats. I really love Clifton; I discovered her earlier this year, and now I have her Mercy compilation, which I will read soon.

Just wanted to say hi, we have quite a few books in common. Plus I love that you've given Philip Roth his own category!
