Hey /wsg/
I have a summer assignment for an English 407 class I'm taking next year, and one part of the assignment requires that we read a book of our choice and respond to a prompt.
>In many works of literature, past events can affect, positively or negatively, the present actions, attitudes, or values of a character. Choose a novel or play in which a character must contend with some aspect of the past, either personal or societal. Then write an essay in which you show how the character's relationship to the past contributes to the meaning of the work as a whole.
I am requesting suggestions for good novels that would fall under this theme without requiring a huge amount of reading. Less than 300 pages is preferred, but acceptable. I am working full-time and will not have the time without straining myself for anything more.
I appreciate any and all responses
