Posting Assignment #10 (due Sunday 12/13, 11:59 P.M.)

For this last "normal" posting (excluding the final project), I'd like to forego a formal posting assignment and instead use this as a space to connect this week's discussion with next week's.  So, please spend some time thinking, and writing, about the following:

What questions, thoughts, and ideas relating to Never Let Me Go continue to linger after this week's class?  What points from our discussion do you want to continue in class next week -- and what points did we NOT raise in class this week, which we need to get to next week?  Use your notes from class today, especially the mini in-class writing we did at the end, as your guide...and then expand from there!

(For those of you who were not in class today -- spend some time thinking, and writing, about the following two questions, which we started with in class:  1) How did you feel as you were reading this book?  What feelings did it bring up, and when?  And why, do you think?  2) What is important here?  What do you want/need to talk about?  What's most pressingly on your mind?)
