A Note About Books

All the books I ordered for you ARE in print. Sometimes they're harder to find, especially in big-box stores like B&N's and Border's. They stock books that they know they can sell a lot of. Unfortunately that leaves out a lot of our best poetry. Robert Lowell, for example, is an interesting case. Lowell's complete poems came out just a few years ago, and boy would B&N rather you buy that expensive, hardback book as opposed to the wee little single edition of Life Studies! How evil, right? If you're having trouble finding your books, looking online is the best way to go. Either that, or head on over to OUR little text and supply store and they should all be available for you. That's why it's there. 

The point: Don't count on just hopping in your car and taking a trip to Borders to find your books. Think ahead and carefully consider how long it will take to receive your books, etc., so you can get your assignments in on time.
