Friday 3/8

Journal:  Respond to the quote below:

After relating the story of the Czechoslovakian who was killed by his mother and sister after he tried to "surprise" them after 25 years, Mersualt contemplates that: "On the one hand it wasn't very likely.  On the other, it was perfectly natural".   **Analyze how Mersauult could feel that this bizarre narrative could be "perfectly natural."

1.  Discuss Journal.

2.  pg. 81  In prison, Mersault sees his own reflection in a tin plate and realizes:  "... for the first time in months, I distinctly heard the sound of my own voice..."

Activity:  With a partner, imagine that your are Mersault.  Describe what you see in your reflection.  Consider what you hear your voice telling you.  10 mins:  Share.

3.  Existential Powerpoint presentations.

4.  Begin reading Ch. 3
