AP English III
The votes have been counted and we will be studying Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison next. I'm super excited. We won't start reading the novel for some time, but I would recommend that you acquire a copy as soon as possible so that you can begin to read it. It's a dense text and it will take you some time to get used to the style and language. Doing that work now will pay off down the road.
Also, I wanted to post some questions on the story that you are reading this weekend. Use these to get into the text and unlock the meaning.
1. Analyze the story's symbols. Consider name symbolism.
2. What are the numbers? How could they be important on a symbolic level?
3. Document the significance of the settings.
4. What do you make of the references to music? Do you see any allusions other than the dedication to Bob Dylan?
Dig deep with this story - it's fun. Enjoy it!
