And now it’s free for all to read, since Times Select is no longer any more of a reality than the campus presence of the Barnard Bulletin.

@ummm “One can think of Barnard as something of a literary hatchery, like London’s Bloomsbury Circle or the 1920s Paris of Hemingway, Fitzgerald and Joyce, where a certain confluence of talent, ambition and what moderns would call networking generates an astonishing literary crop.”
Never heard Barnard compared to Paris before.
