During this past week of class we've discussed our annotations on Ceremony. I have to say that though this is the least productive my class has ever been (we've spent four days on the first group) it is the most I have gotten out of any of our class discussions. Ceremony is so full of symbols and deeper meanings that every time you read a passage you can find something new. And though it can be a pain to read, it has definitely become my favorite book so far. The message of reconnecting with one's cultural traditions to solve the answers of the present is a powerful one and one that means a lot to me. The slow close reading our class does allows everyone to be able to find a large majority of the symbols and be able to interpret the book in different ways though all correct which is the beauty of Ap Lit. I think it's safe to say that I am thoroughly enjoying class.
