in language arts we have the choice to read whatever book we want, but the theme has to be triumph and turmoil (ex. hatchet or a wrinkle in time). my teacher showed my class some books, most of them were dull. any ideas on books?
What do i choose?spyware remove
What about ''Disgrace'' by JM Coetzee. Set in South Africa and won the Nobel price for literature. It's quite a dark book, so not sure it can be defined as 'triumph' although survival itself can be a triumph.
Or what about ''Wild Swans'' by Jung Chang. Brilliant book about 4 generations of female relatives who grew up in China, from the era of the concubine through communism to the great granddaughter who grew up in a capitalist western country. I enjoyed the book so much I went to China for a month :-)
What do i choose?virus protection
Dune, The World War series (Harry Turtledove), Mr. Midshipman Hornblower
I like the book called the giver i read that in middles school though
Wuthering Heights. Its about overcoming your station in life through extreme struggle and loss. It is by far one of my favorite books. It is well written and a great read.
