Realism and Modernism

This week we are looking at how literature changed after the Romantic movement.  We are looking at the Realist writers and the Modernist writers that described the harsh reality of a new world.  In class we read a couple of Hemingway short stories, and we looked at Dickens, London, and Hugo.

Your job this week is to tell a story about the day in the life of someone in Juneau.  Give a voice to someone that is voiceless, and show the harder side of living.
