Sisyphus, Strangers, and the Absurd: A Poem

Please publish your found poems here.

Once you have published your poem, take some time to read and comment on others' poems. How do they help you understand Meursault? Or why the novel's title is The Stranger? Or the plight of modern man? Or the journey of the absurd hero? Or anything else related to Camus and Absurdism?

Discussion: Portrait of the Artist, 1st Half of Ch.2

On the outer circle, your goal is to participate frequently and thoughtfully. Remember to use formal conventions (not texting language), and to hit the F5 key to refresh your screen.

Enjoy!

Summer Reading

By way of introduction, please share some brief thoughts about what you read this summer. Include not only the "literary" novel you read for class, but also any other less formal reading you might have done, both literary and "commercial," both print and electronic. Any recommendations? Feel free also to comment on your classmates' postings as the blog is an excellent forum for discussion!

I don't know if I need to remind my A.P. scholars of this, but your blogs should also be professional and carefully proofread.

Please post your writing under "Comments" by class time on Friday, August 21.
