More discussion on irony in "The Story of an Hour," "A Rose for Emily" and "Genesis and Catastrophe." Then, we began reading the short play Trifles together. We will finish this in class next time.

Shakespeare:
Mainly we worked on some writing today. First, we took a few minutes to finish working on a rough draft of the narrative based on Taming of the Shrew. Then, we did several focused freewrites on a variety of themes: love, beauty, time, change, etc...
