During our class last Tuesday, I mentioned that I might add a Parker short story so that it could be read aloud in class. Parker was famous for her monologue and dialogue stories, and they can be performed like short plays.
For Tuesday, please read "You Were Perfectly Fine" in our book and think about how you'd read it aloud if you were performing it.
Next Tuesday, as part of our discussion of Parker (before going on to Lewis), I will ask two volunteers to read the story aloud, with one taking the part of the "pale young man" and the other person taking the part of the young woman who "reminds" him of what he did when he was drunk.
Also, I'll be on campus tomorrow (mostly in the library); if you want to meet with me, send me an e-mail in the morning and we can arrange a time.
