Not a great photo, but for those who understand having no shelf space!

Traci1 Lol I think it's a beautiful photo. I always love the ones that are clear enough for me to read all the titles. I'm nosy like that. 😄 6y

Feeling conflicted about my prior post. The book is wonderful, but posted about re-reading before the news about abuse of women emerged. Just saw him at an author visit in Buffalo and he was insightful, articulate, political while letting his humor emerge. Sad. What will his future be now.....

RaimeyGallant Just spent some time reading up on this. Wow. 6y
bio_chem06 I've been following this story for weeks. I'm very surprised that pbs kept him on the list for the great American read. I also heard today that his job at MIT may be at risk but he has tenure, so he's probably really protected. I'm so sad because he was one of my favorite writers ever. 6y
lmbix I agree...not completely surprised that the novel remains because of its excellence and clearly they are trying to be inclusive and not delving into the lives of the authors. Thanks for commenting! 6y
