Reading for Monday, November 23

We’re moving on to our final segment. Please read Roberto Bolaño’s short story, “Gomez Palacio.” I’d like you to think a bit about how the story raises doubts about the meaning of life, or at least the quest for meaning in life. Does the story propose a way out of the problems it presents? Come to class ready to discuss these matters. A pdf can be found here: Gomez Palacio – Bolaño.
