BLUSH-MAKING -- An unsolicited comment:

I just stumbled upon your Web reviews while surfing for some Canlit crit, and I thought I'd drop you a line to tell you how succinctly revealing and eminently useful they are. I admire your choice of authors and titles, and only wish I had had the time to read all of them!
