REMINDERS FOR THE WEEKEND:

Your 1-2 paragraph FOCUSED analysis of ONE aspect of Kipling's poem "The White Man's Burden" is due in class on Monday--we will peer critique and discuss on Tuesday. 

The "did you read it" test for the Poisonwood Bible is on MONDAY. 

You may begin reading Heart of Darkness (Conrad) this weekend, if you wish. As it is a very short book, we are going to read it in about a week. Plan accordingly. Bring the text to class every day starting Monday.

Don't forget to be reading in one of the four "allusion categories" we discussed (the Bible, Shakespeare, fairy tales/"kiddie" lit., or mythology). Your project is looming just 5 weeks from now! More TBA soon!
