I just discovered that The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life was not in my Bookends library. Those who know me well will be shocked and appalled by this.* I take it as a sign of how little I have actually gotten accomplished in the past 2ish years (since my HD crashed in early September 2004), because I KNOW that it was in my library at that time.

In other news, I learned a few days ago that my review of Viviane Serfaty’s book The Mirror and the Veil has finally been published at RCCS. (It seems that other reviewers were even more behind deadline than I was!) I was especially interested in reading her response to the reviews; I haven’t had a chance yet to read the other reviews.

*I have, in fact, been known to literally bounce with glee when I get to discuss Goffman.
