On Monday, you had reading and reading log time, and then worked on a character map. I was sick and Mr. Lowall was in - it sounded like he was able to bring in some interesting perspectives.
Tuesday we looked closely at part 2 of Chapter 5, Bernard's solidaridy service. I think this is the moral low point of the whole novel: it is a perversion of religious experience that leaves the participants feeling empty, rather than connected.
On Thursday you will be writing an in-class essay (topic: How does the World State control its citizens?). Wednesday we will look more closely at essay conventions. You will be allowed to bring in an outline, so you may wish to begin preparing.
