Date: 2007-10-03 03:02 pm (UTC)Nelson Algren, Who Lost An American. An American wanders around overseas, lost and pugnacious.
John Dewey, The Quest For Certainty. The certain gives way to the likely.
Thomas Kuhn, Black Body Theory and the Quantum Discontinuity, 1894-1912. Planck doesn't know what he's found until Einstein and Ehrenfast figure it out for him.
Nathaniel Hawthorne, Blithedale Romance. Not as blithe as the title suggests.
Rex Stout, Murder By The Book. Archie gets crush on slightly overweight woman, while dodging guff from grossly overweight man.
