Easy, ?

So after a two or three hour trip to the library, I think I have all my sources. I've said it before, libraries are a wonderful thing.

I grabbed another book--not Karl's, it had by then been checked out--by Lawrence Graver, giving me three books. As I've said, I have three database sources, though I may drop one of them, I'm not sure. And then I collected an article by Douglas Hewitt from Short Story Crticism vol. 9, an Article from Frederick Karl taken from Twentieth Century Literary Criticism vol. 6, and three articles from TCLC vol. 57--which has an 84 page section entirely on the secret sharer--by Geurard, Ressler, and Simmons.

All in all, this gives me eleven sources. Of the eleven, I've only really read the book sources, and I'll have to re-read those; all in all I'll have to read about seventy or eighty pages of Conrad criticism before I can start writing.

On the bright side, I should be an expert on this single story by the time I'm done. Nine days before it's due to be turned in.
