I have been enjoying Ewa Luczak's "Breeding and Eugenics in the American Literary Imagination".
Perhaps you are like me, with your first language English, but not the sort of English written by most professors of English these days.
If so, you will absolutely love the limpid English of Ms Luczak, whose first language is Polish and who, despite the limpidness of her English, is a fully tenured professor of English.
