dervish: In the spirit of the last post, although not something I read as a child, I just bought the one copy of
Ode to Billy Joe that Amazon.com had. Did you know there's a movie, too? I can't tell if the book is based on the movie or vice-versa. Time to do some digging.
To most of you in the Boston area: if you are at all interested in a book that without fail makes me cry, let me know, and you can borrow it when I'm done.
