Good morning students!

This is your assignment for Friday's class -- please bring it with you Friday so we can get to work quickly :)

Choose several stories (2 to 4 stories) that you enjoyed most so far this semester and then think about the theme of emotional enslavement. Jot down some notes on what you think the emotional enslavement is in each story and what you've learned from that. Really think about it -- as though you had to write a 5-page paper on it -- what would you write about?

On Friday, after a brief discussion on "The Hunger Artist," we will be breaking into groups to discuss, write and then share our findings. You will be commenting frankly on each other's ideas about enslavement -- so spend some time thinking about what you will write. More thinking and less writing will be your best bet on this assignment.

If you have any questions, email me or post a comment on the blog.

See you Wednesday,

RD
