In the Lake of the Woods

Wednesday, February 6, 2013

Happy Wednesday everyone! Today we will begin our discussion of In the Lake of the Woods by Tim O'Brien (it is SO good.. I cannot stop reading it)

Agenda:

-Go down to the library and check out the book
-We will be reading the first two chapters as a class
  • As we read, look for paragraphs or phrases that you find particularly interesting. Why do they strike you? 
  • After reading other work by Tim O'Brien, what do you think we can expect to see in this novel as well?
-Also, we will briefly discuss the structure of the novel ( what does it mean to have three kinds of story happening within one text?)

-The second half of the class you will have to work on the completion of your magical realism stories

Homework:

Please read up to pg. 58
