Question

Hemingway 1. After you finish reading Wilbur Williams's "A White Father at the Indian Camp'?" discuss your thoughts about his theory. Did it surprise you? Do you agree? Explain. (Wilbur Williams's

article can be found in the "Homework" section of the Week 8 folder.) 2. How does Nick change over the course of his visit to the Indian Camp? (How was he affected by what he witnessed?) Evans 3. In "Stories Happen in the Space Between How We Feel and What We Say" (an interview between Jennifer Baker and Danielle Evans), Evans states the following: I think my craft obsession is that gulf between what we think we're saying and what we're actually saying, or who we think we are and who we actually are. And that is something I come back to again and again both for context and for characterization. Because I think most possibility for narrative happens in that space. The space between how we feel and what we say, or who we thought we were and who we actually were when we had to make a choice makes narrative surprise possible. It makes writing these characters possible; it makes it possible for these characters to do something you didn't expect them to do, but still feels in character and doesn't break the mold of the story. (https://electricliterature.com/stories-happen-in-the-space- between-how-we-feel-and-what-we-say/) (A) Think about the story "Anything Could Disappear." How do you think Evans' statement applies to Vera? Is there, for example, a difference between who Vera thinks she is and who she actually is (or between how she feels and what she says)? Explain. (B) Does Vera do something you didn't expect her to do? Discuss.
