does anyone have any input/reflections/interpretations of some of Shirley Jackson's short stories (other than The Lottery). I'd be interested to see what people think the meanings are.

I can't find any information about this poem on the internet or in any books i've got. "Now there is no companion" is by American poet, Mary Oliver.

If you have any information on this poem I'd be grateful if you'd share it with me..

Cheers

Have read all of Asimov, Arthur C Clark, Jules Verne, And somebody said Anne McAffrey and I read most of hers as well ( Well I didn't read the Doona trilogy, and the powers that be, or Peytabee in her case)

So what's next? Plz classify them under diff. headings as in Popular/Classic, or Your favs( Not very popular, but you like them?)

Ah yes, and someone suggested Steel beach , and Titan (john Varley) So I read them as well. Now what?

I am reaching the end of my student life, so am reading these things at a fast pace( 2-3 books a week is all i can manage , what with exams coming.)

Looking for something other than Orwell, Huxley, Atwood, Lessing etc. Anything set in the present day but with a quantum physics or biotechnology theme would also be of interest. I'm particularly interested in charismatic narrative voice, unusual narrative structure and general high quality writing. Thanks!
