Additional Book Comments        
This is the complete book list for this class.  
Instructor's comments about the book list: Please buy the 4 required books, and if you can, buy all 6 books, which you should be able to find discounted copies of at ThriftBooks, Bookshop.org or Powell's Books. You will need The American Sonnet anthology and The Badass Brontes in the first few weeks of class, so get those first. Ebooks will be provided whenever they're available, but buying the physical books supports hard-working poets and independent publishers and makes your personal library shine.
