Free lit course starts Monday - recommended by me

One of my favorite professors, Dr Arnold Weinstein, is diving into the world of MOOCs (massive open online courses) with The Fiction of Relationship this summer. The course starts Monday, so great news, you still have time to sign up!

The first week's reading is Abbé Prévost's MANON LESCAUT which is available in the public domain. Future weeks will tackle JANE EYRE, BARTLEBY (which I'm ashamed to never have read) and J.M. Coetzee's DISGRACE. Let me know if any of you actually sign up and we can start a back-channel discussion.

My well spent youth

One of my favorite lit professors ever, Arnold Weinstein, is teaching a free class on Coursera this summer encompassing Melville, Woolf, Faulkner, Borges... just sign up right now. It's not the same as attempting to read ULYSSES in three weeks while taking a full course load, but close!
