I think that's comparatively cheaper than $1 was thirty-odd years ago, when I bought my first book by her. I'm intrigued by the thought of the Joan Baez poem; even in the late 1970s I felt that Vinograd was coming in part from a different, earlier time in Berkeley. I'd like to see how her approaches have either changed or not changed. I'll be on the lookout for Falling Sky.Patrick J.

About six ...Oh yes, Julia Vinograd is still there. About six months ago I was in the Friends of the Berkeley Public Library bookstore, which is just off Telegraph, when I saw her. With a practiced saleswoman's eye, she caught my smile and told me she had a new book out for $5. Pleased that <i>something</i> is still unchanged in Berkeley, and liking the poem about Joan Baez I turned to at random, I bought a copy of <i>Falling Sky</i>.David Bratmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08090662884600828582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22361479.post-62626296743207974312012-04-28T18:10:54.821-07:002012-04-28T18:10:54.821-07:00yes indeed -- actually I was thinking of some peop...yes indeed -- actually I was thinking of some people closer to you than students' parentsPatrick J.

I especially liked Welfare World, which I will try to remember when I get irritated with some of my students' parents.<br />VUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10438895567795968644noreply@blogger.com
