You'll notice that the prompt for the second major essay is listed to the right for your consultation.
For Monday, read 'How To Tell a True War Story' and be prepared both for a quiz on it and to discuss O'Brien's project generally, particularly in relationship to the Davidson & Lytle chapter we've been working with. Think about the following question, which I'm sure to ask: How is the Davidson & Lytle's opposition of 'myth' and 'authenticity' like O'Brien's 'story-truth' v. 'happening truth'? More importantly, how is it different?
No response for Monday, though the response for Wednesday will require you having watched at least one of the war films for your essay, so be sure to be doing that this weekend. You don't want to be in the position of writing and watching at the same time.
