I echo Rick's sentiments.  Whether someone was a long time friend or a newcomer, whether one was from a large or small university, Gaylord Jentz and his wife were always hospitable and interested in talking with colleagues.

Subject: Honors Course - Law and Literature

Dear ALSB Friends,

I join you in mourning the passing of Gaylord Jentz and honoring him.  I did
not know him well from our short interactions at national conferences, yet
every time I met him, he treated me equally to those he knew for decades.
It was impossible not to observe the obvious respect and admiration that all
in the ALSB community had for him.  He will be deeply missed.

Now a request for a favor . . .

St. Thomas has an honors program that offers two-credit seminars to honors
students that are team-taught by professors from different disciplines.   A
colleague and I are considering a course titled " Law and Literature".  Here
is my question:

If you taught a course called "Law and Literature" what two favorite books
would you include in the course?  (No need to limit yourself to two, if you
have more suggestions).

Thanks all in advance for your help.
