I am finished my second year!
But, seriously folks, *cough*
I have read a lot of good books this year but the only people I can discuss them with are my teachers and people form my classes who really know just as much as I do - so that's no fun.
Im going to put a list down of the fiction I read (mostly American Lit) in hopes that someone wants to discuss topics such as:
liberalism, disaffiliation (re-affiliation), the liberal self and Puritanism, racism and slavery in the south , and other topics VERY WELCOME!
So here goes:
Invisible Man - Ralph Ellison (not THE Invisible Man)
Huckleberry Finn - Mark Twain
The Awakening - Kate Chopin
A Farewell to Arms - Ernest Hemingway
The Scarlet Letter - Nathaniel Hawthorne
Emerson's "Nature"
Jefferson's "Letters"
Now, I understand that some of this stuff is required in American High School, possibly Elementary school; but Canadian so, although I knew what these books were, I only read them this year.
ciao, della.
