11. If the cover has creased, the layers of the paper will have separated and the fibres pulled out of alignment. The crease is then bulkier than the rest of the cover and stretched on the side it bends away from. As you cannot push the fibres back into their former alignment, this is a technique I have used to get the cover to lie flat.

This precious book is the only surviving copy in the Biblioteca Nacional in Madrid (Cerv.118). (Tesoros de España, Ten Centuries of Spanish Books, lists the details of the first edition in Spanish. (24 p.293)) The permission to print the manuscript of DQ has the date 26 September 1604. You can already read on the first page that
The book is likely old. We would have read it back in the 2000's, and it was old back then, and likely already out of print.

Determining which is the best posthumous edition involves research of a different type. For many authors there is a "standard" modern edition that scholars tend to prefer.
Good observations - I'll do better. My sources are the book "The Great White Chief" (long out of print), MS Dept of Archives, and family lore (which should be taken as a grain of salt, and could be wholey wrong). As far as I know, there isn't any between Faulkner and my family name. He could have merely picked it out of a phone book. –
One last thing about close reading. Don't close read on a computer. Print out the passage you want to close read. That way, you can underline words and jot down notes. Trust me, it helps.

6. Many years ago (late '60s to '70s), I read a story about a boy with a group of hikers on a ridge who get caught in a lightning storm. They all run off the ridge, and, apparently, the boy went down the wrong side, and he got lost. The boy ended up needing to survive on his own. He used a paperclip that was on a letter from his parents to make ...
Unfortunately, a search using the terms "omniscient narrator" goodman "structure of literature" provides no results from Paul Goodman's book, which is out of print, so this turned out to be a dead end. E. M. Forster's Aspects of the Novel, published in 1927, looked like another candidate. In a Google Books preview I find the following quote:
