Weekly Reader 4-23-12

The AV Club on what makes a good book to film adaptation. My lit218 class is going to use this article to frame their final paper…project.

I have been thinking a lot lately about making a digital edition.

An excellent review, deeply critical, from Al Jazeera of Rachel Maddow’s new book. Why do “liberals” become so blood thirsty and fine with the Military Industrial Complex when a Democrat is President?

New Post At Blogging Woolf

I have a new post up at Blogging Woolf. Again, I am writing about Mrs. Dalloway; this time, I am focused on looking at how Woolf reveals Clarissa’s day chronologically. I use an Anna Benjamin article to break down the day.

I will be teaching Mrs. Dalloway this semester, so expect a lot more from me over at Blogging Woolf as the semester goes on.

Speak

Here I am holding my copy of Laurie Halse Anderson's 10th anniversary edition of Speak. I will be teaching this novel in LIT218, Literature & Film, in the spring.

The Mortal Storm

My desk copy of Phyllis Bottome’s intermodern novel The Mortal Storm came in the other day. This is going to be a fun one to teach next semester.
