Important Note to Students

The HAMLIT assignment page is a convenience but not something to be dependent on. When possible, homework and reading assignments will be posted here, but you are expected to complete all assignments that are announced in class on time, regardless of whether they are posted online. If you are absent, or do not remember if there is an assignment, you will need to contact another member of class to verify what the assignment is. Neither I nor the site are responsible for your failure to complete this responsibility.

Due Tuesday, May 11

Read "Hills like White Elephants" and "A Clean well-lighted Place."

Suggested thinking topics:

Hills: What can be inferred about the relationship between the man and the woman? How does the extensive use of dialog convey some of these dynamics?

Place: Alienation and isolation? Importance of paragraph beginning "'Good night', the other said" in terms of style and content?
