Thanks to the thousands of you wrote in (make that a handful, but thanks!) with your list of literary allusions from my "Up-north Literary Life" essay. The big winner is Rob Luke from Minnesota, who will receive a free copy of Sweet Land: New and Collected Stories.
His list:
T.S. Eliot
F.Scott Fitzgerald
Robert Frost
Mark Twain
Tom Wolfe
Flannery O'Conner
Bill Holm
Willa Cather
Not bad at all, Rob. And to be totally transparent about this "contest", be it known that Rob Luke is a former student of mine--which is all the more pleasing.
Rather than list my answers here, it's easiest if look back through the Up-North essay. In it I have gone back and highlighted my literary references and allusions. Some of them are a bit obscure, but hey, no whining, ha.
