I agree with #1. Can't pass judgment on the rest--even *Grapes*, I'm ashamed to admit.

Right now I have a love affair going with *Crime and Punishment*, but we don't get to meet often enough. Teaching a college class again (Lit this time!) and taking on a few too many projects all of the sudden. About the time things fall into sync, I'll have a little person here to throw them out again, but that's OK.
