Nicholson Baker, "Substitute"

http://www.politics-prose.com/book/97... In his sixth work of nonfiction, Baker, a novelist who won the National Book Critics Circle Award for his passionate advocacy of paper records, Double Fold, chronicles his experiences as a substitute teacher in the Maine public schools. Setting out to learn “what life in classrooms was really like,” Baker faced a “noisy, distracted, crazy-making reality.” For the students, the day was simply long; for teachers, it was a constant struggle to keep classes engaged. Yet overall such challenges were stimulating, and Baker offers a lively and insightful report from “one fairly typical, not-terribly-poor-but-hardly-rich school district.” Founded by Carla Cohen and Barbara Meade in 1984, Politics & Prose Bookstore is Washington, D.C.'s premier independent bookstore and cultural hub, a gathering place for people interested in reading and discussing books.
