I think it's likely that I look back on the book launch symposium for Close Reading for the Twenty-First Century as one of the absolute highlights of my career

thanks to @dan-sinnamon.bsky.social , our contributors, and all the participants -- this was so incredible
We are underway. @dan-sinnamon.bsky.social delivers opening remarks at a packed “Close Reading For The 21st Centure” book launch symposium.
