"Your reading list doesn't strike me as one that will bring in many
takers, even among the scholarly community." It isn't even thebeginning of a reading list. It's just what I happen to read lately and
some drama and poetry that it reminded me of, but what can be removed
from a list of such great writers? It strikes me that any scholar in
the liberal arts who had not read everything on *that* list isn't a
scholar. But, you have aroused my curiosity. Could you give me some
examples of what quasi-intelligent people *do* read nowadays? "Please,
God, don't let it be Tom Clancy."
