Re: [Understand] Beginning with Chapter One

[Beverlee Paul]

As I've been reading TU, I've increasingly considered the possibilities of 
following through the process Ellin describes on page 11 with The Other Side 
(one of my all-time favorites) with nonfiction and poetry.  I think the process 
would be much the same, but I'm still thinking.  Sometimes I think we get 90% 
of the way there (teaching to understand) and then lop off the last 10% which 
would make the whole experience many times stronger.  Why do we do that???  I'm 
going to be considering that as I read this book.
