...metaphysical abstraction. In a similar fashion, Stevens' best known shorter poems, among them "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird" and "Not Ideas About the Thing But the Thing Itself," concern themselves with the poet's subjective experience while invoking such austere, resonant imagery as to leave the reader little room to doubt the poet's constructed world...
...teaser for the article, as if those stripes and that headline weren't enough of a tease, informs the interested reader that George Clooney most wants to act the part of the "Guy" in a "classic leading-man kind of way."

In your box summarizing readers' reactions [LETTERS, Oct. 27], reader John Strade simplified the male group by calling it a national organization for men and responding to NOW's criticism of it by rhetorically asking "Am I missing something?" Yes, John, you are. NOW comprises both men and women working to achieve social and economic equity for women. The Promise Keepers believe the way to a happy home is through...
