In this ongoing class, learners will practice using high level literary analysis skills as they delve into a different short story each week. With every story, there will be a focus on one to two different literary devices used by the author to expertly craft their work. As learners practice recognizing these literary devices in action, they will grow their confidence in their critical reading abilities. Finally, we will take plenty of time each class to simply enjoy discussing these stories that have proven to be some of the best in English Literature.
