Ok ok, I complained like a baby about Pride and Prejudice. But hey, we just finished "My Name is Asher Lev" and a bunch of other stuff that was REALLY good and I scored really well on my tests/pop-quizes.
Ok ok, so you love me now. I was supposed to read/write questions/teach on the short story by Aldous Huxley (who I already like) called "The Gioconda Smile" So this is tomorrow, that's cool, I've got plenty of time, I get my paper all ready to type up title/date/name all that.
I go to my bookbag for my book and it's not there. Hmm...ok, it fell out in the car. I go to the car, not there. I MUST have left it in my room then...nope not in my room...
Then I remembered, I told my friend's 13 (11-12? I don't know) year old sister who's pretty damn smart she could grab "My Name is Asher Lev" from my backpack if she liked because she wanted something to read. Then I remembered her asking to borrow that too...but I was talking to Sara's mother about politics and a card game and I passingly said "yes" forgetting I needed the book!
Ok ok, so WHAT is the story about, I can't find CRAP on the internet and I've been looking a while, I'll keep looking but I wanted to get this up quick.
I need to know enough to have 5-7 (meaning 7-8) discussion questions (those I will make up, you worry not oh great literature virtuoso).
Thank you SOOO much
