TASP 2003 at UT Austin: The Mystery of Creativity



reasonably remarkable



Wednesday, August 27, 2003
before I begin I promise a shorter post this time. I was skimming through the archives today (and at the same time trying ever so hard to digest Bryan's analysis of the defective wheel) and my last post is such a huge chunk of text I can't even bring myself to read.

so before it gets any longer--
Kafka's been floating around for more than ten days now. Maybe it's a bit soon, but I think it's just about mid-way evaluation time. We chose Kafka partially because it was easy to do for our first trial-period book. How do you think it's worked so far? Do you think it'll work for future books, even longer, less digestible ones? If not, how should our book club work from now on?
