(Choice of focus and texts to be determined by individual instructors.) Writing- and presentation-intensive course.

Comment :
If you've got the chance to take this course will Elleray, do it! We only had 2 texts (Fingersmith and Woman in White), both which were neo-Victorian and both of which were FANTASTIC. Not a boring read because Michelle understands that SHE has to read along too - so why bore herself and us? Very good feedback on the essays, and just an all-round fun course. Very chill and never boring. Best way to keep the ball rolling is to play off of one another! Hope you've got a chatty class, or things will go dry quickly.
