Just a quick "for fun" note involving tales of injury from Clarissa. This giant tome of 18th century intrigue weighs in at 3lbs, which doesn't sound like much until you realize that this is a book. Most novels are under a pound. So many of us have already complained of the dangers of reading this while reclining. We have all already experienced the joy of falling asleep while reading and waking to three pounds of epistolary greatness slamming into our faces. Today we had a tale from a classmate of being caused to fall when the book shifted in her bag and caused a loss of balance. Then there is the story of the student who began having nightmares that the book would never end. Seriously. All true tales. Come on guys, jump on the Clarissa bandwagon!
Speaking of which, I am thinking of doing a retelling of the Clarissa story as a modern story in blog/facebook form. Could be fun.
Back to class now...
Keep reading!
