The professor sometimes acts like he thinks I read just about nothing. My
joke is a little strained.

Actually, Bob, the professor merely calls you to task occasionally when you spout off about books that you also admit not having read.
More or less true--except that in most cases I've read poems from the book or its author, and in all cases know something about what I'm talking about, even books I haven't read. Sometimes it's possible for a perceptive person to know more about a book he hasn't read than an unperceptive person who has read it does. Believe it or not.
Happy Holidays, David.
