Katha Pollitt's "Re-Reading Jane Austen" (a poem)

 Here's a very interesting link from the Guardian (a very literary British newspaper) from about a month ago relating to Jane Austen.  It's a poem by Katha Pollitt, a very well-known American poet, who published a poem entitled "Re-Reading Jane Austen."  Even though the poem is specifically discussing Emma (our next book!), you might still get a kick out of it.  We'll resurrect it when we start reading Emma to discuss what she's driving at in the poem.
