About meHonorary lady rhetorician.

About my libraryI'm trying to only post books I have actually read, at least in part, or have noble intentions of reading in the near future. Rating system:

(5) Life-altering, mind-blowing, I pick it up and read passages at random for fun.

(4) Memorable. I go out of my way to bring it up in casual conversation.

(3) Enjoyable and/or useful.

(2) Forgettable, disappointing or mildly irritating.

(1) Pernicious.

Glad someone else thinks Marianne Moore deserves a spot on his favorites list. incidentally, I just turned from perpetual ABD to PhD in December, and I'm 38, so you never know when you might get foolish enough to write one of those things :) Makes no difference on any significant human scale, though.

Hey there! Thanks for dropping by. I see we have a good number of books in common, and we'd probably share a lot more if I fed my bookshelves more with more of my measly graduate student stipend. In a year or so I expect to become a perpetual ABD, too. :)
