| Instructor's comments about the book list: Please buy the two required books, which you should be able to find deeply discounted copies of at ThriftBooks, Bookshop.org or Powell's Books. You will need these books in the first few weeks of class, so I would order them now. Ebooks will be provided whenever they're available, but buying the physical books supports hard-working writers and independent publishers and makes your personal library shine. |
