Teaching class was okay. I liked it but I was unsure whether it was that enjoyable for the other people involved. Saw a few cellphones out (If you think I’m talking about you I almost definitely am) but who am I to judge. For Cartucho <\/em>we found that the text was so dynamic we didn’t really feel the need to look elsewhere for class material. So it felt more like a book club than a class. But I liked\u00a0 that.<\/p>\n

We divided our questions into three main categories: trauma, violence and the role of women.<\/p>\n

For trauma I was mostly interested in whether or not the protagonist was traumatized. I still don’t think I’ve decided. I thought that was an interesting discussion.<\/p>\n

For violence we looked at a few segments specifically and tried to deduce what purpose the violence was serving in the narrative, if any.<\/p>\n

The role of women brought up a lot of questions around motherhood, inter generational knowledge and implicit work\/strength. I think that any of the sections we chose as discussion topics for each subject were likely interchangeable as there was so much going on in each vignette. I enjoyed hearing about other people’s experiences with the book, especially around the scene where the soldiers become obsessed with the baby.<\/p>\n

I also like the semi-circle formation (maybe that’s just because I was in front) and going around in a circle because I think it encouraged everyone to speak up without being forceful about it.<\/p>\n
