Hi all,

It's a bad night for me to get my anthology at the office (fortunately the table of contents is online at the Oxford UP website), but here's the list of what we've read AND discussed as I can recall it. Let me know here in a comment on the blog if you think there's anything I've forgotten. Some of these poems and stories we mentioned only briefly, so I am putting in bold type the ones I recall talking about in detail and which I think are most important for you to know.
