Well, my copy of the Oxford Edition arrived yesterday, and I was like
a three year old on Christmas Day. The books are beautiful, the
illustrations fascinating, and I personally can't wait to crack into
things like the Hal Halbrook essay in Twain's Speeches. I just wish
I could take the whole set with me on spring break, but I don't
relish the thought of packing that big 'ole box up and trusting it to
baggage carriers.
Now all I have to do is find space in my dorm room for 29
hardcover books....
Happy but cramped,
