Take 7 minutes.

In the Penal Colony 2

Take half an hour to write a paragraph exploring what puzzles you about "In the Penal Colony." Feel free to incorporate some of the ideas we brought up in class, but your quotes should be from the final pages that we hadn't read yet. Although in formal writing a topic sentence needs to start the paragraph, here you may want to arrive at it in your final sentence.
I will only evaluate these for effort. If it looks like you spent half an hour thinking and writing, you get full credit.
Due before lunch Monday.

Penal Colony 1

Take 10 minutes (until 12:45) to free-write on "In the Penal Colony." What is puzzling you about this story? What links can you make to the Nietzsche passages we've read? What links can you make to other Kafka stories and other books we've read?
Questions here are more valuable than answers.
