Greetings!
The galley of Wayne Franklin's forthcoming James
Fenimore Cooper: The Early Years just arrived
here. Wow, what a fascinating read! I can't wait to
have it on our shelves in June. Wayne as you know,
is professor of English and American Studies here at
UConn. He received support for this project from the
American Antiquarian Society, National Endowment
for the Humanities, the Stanton W. and Elisabeth K.
Stanton Foundation, and the John Simon
Guggenheim Foundation.
Have you been reading the Hartford Courant's
five-part story on Jerry Yang, Director of UConn's Center
for Regenerative Biology? It's nice to see a scientist
so highly appreciated in the press. Congratulations
Professor Yang!
Karen Ordahl Kupperman's latest book, The
Jamestown Project is due here in a few weeks. I've
been reading that too: such amazing detail! Kupperman
is Professor of History at NYU and emeritus at UConn.
Oh, and remember my carryings on last month about the
benefits of being messy? Well, I'm not exactly changing
my ways or
cleaning my desk, but I am going to empty the office of
galleys and arcs on Friday the 23rd. Stop by for some
wonderful free reads.
Cheers!
Suzy
