This forum post is nearly impossible to write, because trying to remember all of the different pieces of literature we read thought the year is a tough task. Reminiscing, the works that came to mind were, Metamorphosis, Midsummer Night’s Dream, “To His coy Mistresses” and “The Lady with the Pet Dog."
My favorite novel of this year was Metamorphosis because of how twisted and unconventional it was. This novel was nothing like I had ever read before, making it a perfect ending of the year. As for my favorite play, Midsummer Night’s Dream was a hilarious comedy filled with wacky characters. This play was quick, to the point, and full of drama. This roller coaster play was by far the most enjoyable William Shakespeare work I had read.
My favorite play, as creepy as this sounds, was “To His Coy Mistress.” That was by far the strangest piece of literature I had ever read. The way the author presents the topic of sex is disturbing yet hilarious. I mean come on, that part about the worms! Who did not laugh?! The two different interpretations of “Lady with a Pet Dog” were memorable when it comes to short stories. The perspective of a male author, compared to the perspective of a female author was refreshing and invigorating. Reading all of these stories seems like a lifetime ago, but it is still unbelievable that the year has come to an end. Looking back I can not believe how much we have learned, and how much information I have absorber over a short year.
