For Richard Ford buffs

Since Richard Ford is on the program of the French Agrégation for the second year in a row, he's catching a good bit of attention in France right now.  He will be speaking at the Université Marc Bloch in Strasbourg on September 20, 2008 at 3 p.m. at Club de la Presse, 10 place Kléber.

Recent publications on Ford include:
Florian Tréguer and François Henry, Lectures de Richard Ford: A Multitude of Sins (Presses Universitaires de Rennes, 2008) has come out at about the same time as Brian Duffy, Morality, Identity and Narrative in the Fiction of Richard Ford (Rodopi, 2008).
