New Books for Syllabus

Please add Josef Conrad's Heart of Darkness and Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale to the syllabus to replace Silence and Never Let Me Go. You should be able to pick both of these up at just about any bookstore in town. There are also tons of secondhand copies available, so get whatever edition you can find. We'll discuss when to read these as we get closer to time. The novels don't really figure into the syllabus until near Thanksgiving.
