Beautifully said, Camille--so cogent, that I am off to find this Lost Highway
you refer to. I had no intention of doing so despite other posts, but this one
got to me.

How many times have I chastised a student for not understanding that the
reading--that even life--is about the experience --not entertainment!

Thanks for reminding me, Camille. I shall not run from Lynch,again. If you want
to know the truth, I ran from Nine Stories for quite some time.   You have to
be willing to let go of your "O Henry expectations"  and just go with it--don't
try to make sense of Teddy--just go with the experience and you will find many
gifts.
