Unread post

I've read some of Wendell Berry's essays and I have one of his novels in my collection which I haven't read yet. Sorry, can't recall which one. So many books.

This particular Oates story is dark, but oddly (to me) not very compelling. And, yet, it's a good story to discuss. The link I provided is from Oates' own web site. I'll start a new thread and just chime in if you feel like it.
