Today we discussed the didactic nature of this novel. I am asking you to gather examples from your reading of pp.55-106 where Courtenay has his characters (Hoppie for example) utter 'wise words' or little conceptual nuggets that PK finds insightful/helpful/defining or 'seeds he socks away' for later.
- List the quote/lesson
- cite it
- write a sentence or two (only) about your understanding of its significance.
- Consider what theme/key idea seems to be at work here (race, friendship, power, landscape, other)
I will have a look at your work next class.
Thanks everyone for your continued hard work.
Ms.S
