Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 101 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

"Letter from..."

Both of the essays this week are written from the perspective of New Yorkers. Is it your perspective? How is it different? How similar? How would "Letter from Bayside (or whatever your neighborhood is)" be different?

How is "Letter from Williamsburg" about faith? How is it about losing faith? Is it both or neither? How is it about depression? What symbol does Dombek use to represent depression? Significance?

Both essays are about sex and relationships. How are they similar? How different?
