Okay then. I will read Shane. It is available on Amazon.com for $5.99. That's less than the price of seeing a movie and if the book is half as good as the people reviewing it there say it is, it will be worth every penny.

I have Shane as part of a larger book consisting of 4 Western stories including The Searchers. I bought it because I am interested in reading the book behind The Searchers movie but I will be re-reading Shane first for the assignment. Oh, and the book only cost me a buck.

Here is some more interesting commentary about Shane:

For many readers, Shane strikes a deep personal chord. In his Foreword to the critical edition of the novel, for example, western historian Marc Simmons declares: "Shane has been an almost lifelong companion. I return to it whenever I need a bit of inspiration or a boost of energy." For him, as for countless others, the book's message is "as deep and vital as the man it describes."
