Bringing it Together: Interpreter of Maladies

.

Below you can find a collection of the blog posts relevant to Interpreter of Maladies. You may wish to use these materials, in conjunction with your class notes, to assist you in your revision. Remember that you will only be required to write an essay in relation to one of either Interpreter of Maladies or Life of Pi. There will be two topics to choose from for each text. Do not write on both texts – just select one (although you may wish to revise both in order to increase your options). Given that this text was studied back in term 1, you will need to undertake substantial independent revision of the stories if you wish to write on this text.
