Going into Oxfam after new year's is probably the last thing I'd do if I wanted to stop buying books.

Resistance is futile.

The Humble Bundle deals are death for me.

Marshall Berman's All That's Solid
an all-time favorite---I did a decent take on a prev WAYR? so won't push my luck. First ed. was published in early Reagan Admin, which second ed. happily saw past ass end of, third I forget when, but the Prof. lived on into Obama years and died of heart attack while lunching at his fave NYC Jewish deli, not grading papers. The book has that kind of good timing as well.

I've never read it. Even when I was doing my lit degree I managed to avoid it, somehow. Glad to finally have it.
