Today we start Mrs. Dalloway.
We'll read in class to get a feel for Woolf's stream of consciousness style. It is unique to most anything you will have been assigned in high school, though as contemporary of Fitzgerald you may find some similarities in language. And since Woolf has been so tremendously influential, you may also find the roots of Laurie Halse Anderson and Markus Zusak in these pages.
It is also the novel that inspired Cunningham to write The Hours.
Tonight read up to page 29. Wednesday we will discuss and make sure folks are following the characters, plot, etc.
Speaking of The Hours, take a look at this trailer for the 2002 film.
And take a listen to the score by composer Phillip Glass, particularly "Morning Passages" and "Escape"
Think about how Glass' sounds reflect the ideas we've been been exploring class. Why might he choose the sounds? This instrumentation? These musical arcs? Might a little research uncover more?
Also, I recommend the fantastic documentary, Glassworks, which I believe is available on Netflix still.
This ties into your Critical Creativity blog post for the week.
