Reflection Post #1 3/31/11

In British Lit, as we make our way into the third unit, I am learning and applying my interest in learning more about the book then just reading it. Now I am dying for more information about the author, what prompted them to write the book, how did they set up the characters? It's interesting to see how British Authors differ from American authors in their humor, the way things are said, and how things are portrayed. I hope we have a group discussion soon on which ways British authors are different from American authors, and how situations going on in each country influence a story.
