Robert Murray Davis has written elegantly about quitting and starting. Born in Kansas in 1934, his Valedictions are just that. He is bidding goodbye to smoking, drinking, his Catholic past, his marriage, and his distinguished career as a professor. Though he remains a scholar, he disposes of many of the books that cluttered his office and life, and the stultifying language and pretensions of the academic. This book about quitting is lively and entertaining.
