Texts

Most of these texts should be available at the UBC bookstore, or you may prefer to order them from Pulp Fiction, “Vancouver’s legendary independent bookstore,” which is often able to offer them at a lower price, though they sometimes need up to two weeks to get the books in. (Where I know the Pulp Fiction price, I indicate that below.)

My very strong suggestion is that, where possible, you buy the physical books rather than relying on digital versions.
