To help a student with a project, I am reading several short stories that have been assigned to her. Together we will read and annotate each story and then choose two to compare and contrast. The stories we are reading include:
The Tell Tale Heart, by Edgar Allan Poe
You, Disappearing, by Alexandra Kleeman
War of the Clowns, by Mia Couto
Three short stories that send their own message. Try reading all three and think about which ones you would want to analyze.
