I would be honored if you used my review in your class. <br /><br />What a wonderful idea to study Edgar Allan Poe in a language class! His use of words could be simple and direct, or subtle and more complex. I feel his poems and stories always have a delicacy, which may seem odd if you consider the subject matter. <br /><br />Thanks again, I'm very flattered! Good luck with your classes, and greetings from Chicago! <br />joycejoyce wegmullerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07340491123673824584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091034060385024636.post-69295340800166840922012-05-27T12:54:33.361-05:002012-05-27T12:54:33.361-05:00Hi, Joyce!

I decided that this month's theme would be Edgar Allan Poe. My advanced students will be working with the "Black Cat" short story, my basic students will be working with a short biography of his and I wanted to work with a review of the movie "The Raven"( which has launched this week around here )with my Intermediate students. I have searched for a good and no so complicated text for them. Not only because of these aspects but as well because of others, I liked very much your review. Would you mind if I use your text - denoting you as the author and the blog as the source - in this project? <br /><br />Thank you very much!<br /><br />Best,<br /><br />VictorVictor Schludehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11784759889216090297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1091034060385024636.post-81593826099594147942012-04-28T19:22:47.442-05:002012-04-28T19:22:47.442-05:00Thank you Dan!

I've never been disappointed in Cusack before, but I really feel it was the script that let him down this time. I'll stick with him!

Although I can definitely see it's not for everyone to sit and enjoy. Cusack was also pretty good and definitely lifted up this material. Nice review Joyce.Dan O.http://www.dtmmr.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
