As you know, I'm not in school today. I'll be back tomorrow, and we are going to start discussing elements related to Frankenstein. I'd really like to give "A&P" some more discussion time. So, while you're at school, and I'm at home, we're going to do a little discussing.
Let's start with three big questions, and we'll see where it goes from there.
- What kind of person is Sammy? How do you know?
- Is the setting of this story important? What is worth commenting on?
- Why did Updike write "A&P"? What was he trying to say about society, the 1960's, or human nature? Post your thoughts, and I'll be responding from 9:20-10.
- Feel free to pose questions to your classmates and myself.
- Mr. Malley
