Please post your answers to the following questions on E. B. White’s Here is New York before our next class, on Tuesday, September 1st:

1. What is your impression of the opening line of White’s book: “New York bestows gifts of loneliness and the gifts of privacy.” Do you agree or disagree with White? If so, why? If not, why not? How effective is the opening? What does it accomplish, if anything?

2. How and why does the writer use lists in this book?
