Alice Munro Wins Nobel Prize
TODAY IN CLASS
Yes, we talked about Alice Munro; please read the full article above for some insight into why she won, and how she connects with the assignment for tomorrow.
Still on split tracks between 1st and 5th, but ever closer. Done (for now; it's always recursive) with the Steinbeck story in 1st, and just a smidgen to go in 5th. So we're naturally not together on "Miss Brill" either.
FOR TOMORROW
Read Perrine Chapter Two--Plot and Structure, and also review the questions in the box at the end of the chapter. I have decided for sure to have you read the Munro story in this section ("How I Met My Husband") because its presence there ties in so perfectly with a key contribution of her work noted in the article above. However, you are not compelled to have that story read for tomorrow; Monday will be fine.
