play anthologies

[Reid Gilbert]

Hi, Moira

I like the Worthen text, the Wadsworth Anthology. It is now in a compact
and full ed. It used to be Harbrace, if I recall.

I like the selection, though it is weak on Canadian in the contemporary
section of the compact ed. I especially like the critical apparatus.  Like
all these anthologies it is expensive for students, so I'd look carefully
at contents before adopting it for any specific course.
