Final Exam Period

Hi Everyone:

I hope that this message gets to everyone (my email account erased my AP Lit group email).  But I just want to remind you that we will be meeting in Mrs. Tarr's room (2211) on Friday, May 31st at 7:30.  You may see signs in the building telling you to report to the lecture hall for the exam, but you can disregard those signs.  Basically, you just need to be ready to speak for about five minutes about your project.  You can tell us about the frustration, ecstasy, confusion, intensity, or euphoria you felt while writing it.  It can be particularly interesting to hear about what kinds of changes or shifts you had to make in the process of writing. 

One final thing: we have to put Addie Bundren to rest somehow.  I'll be putting a blog stub up for any thoughts you have on the final section of As I Lay Dying.  I'm particularly interested in what you think of the Darl / barn situation and the famous final line in the context of the book as a whole.  But anything you can contribute to regarding the end of the book will be good, as long as it addresses specific scenes / situations and is thoughtful.

Thanks, Mr. Telles.
