The Way We Weren't by Jill Talbot

5.0

Compelling and beautiful. Full of the kind of sentences you want to underline, write down on a piece of paper and carry around in your pocket. Sad but hopeful. One of my favorite essays is the syllabus, because as a teacher I know, this is really all we ever do--compose syllabi that tell the story of our lives in a thinly disguised list of books and assignments.
