Dear students,
Bellow you will find several short stories. Please read them and and then write your views, impressions, opinion, reaction in form of an EXTENDED comment. You are particularly encouraged to comment on each other's views, respond to each others' posts, and engage in a meaningful dialogue about the stories.
The first piece was written by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie with the title "Real Food" (follow the link below to access it). Adichie, author of the celebrated novel Americanah, explores her heritage and her family through her hatred of garri, a traditional Nigerian food. She finds that not eating the food both frees her and separates her from her family, and this brief story expertly explores what it means to (not) belong to a culture.
Comments are due by Tuesday, November 4th.
