Which readings or course material did you find most interesting? Which did you find least interesting?
Of the various reading materials I found to be most interesting include Langston Hughes simple, yet elegant poem "Harlem (A Dream Deferred)." Another story I felt was exquisitely executed was Joyce Carol Oates "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" which in my opinion is practically built for a screen adaptation, though it already bares similarities to a 1986 Horror film by the name of "Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer." And lastly I very much enjoyed the sign-language poetry, to think that there is an untapped source of poetry oblivious to the hearing community at large is quite astounding. As for the least appreciated works we've had to read, these would have to include Kate Chopin's monotonous "The Story of an Hour." A very dull and uninteresting tale of a woman in woe in lieu of her spouse's supposedly horrific death. That is the only tale I vehemently disliked during the entire semester.
