You're reading White Teeth this week alongside postcolonialism.
I suggest that you read Bressler's article first, since it provides an overview of the field, and then move on to Said's piece, which is more complex, but worthwhile. I want your posts (and your journal) to work with both essays, not just the (easy) one. You may want to consider the relationship between postcolonialism and the umbrella-like nature of reader-response and cultural criticism. And, of course, please don't forget the other methodologies we've discussed all semester.
The last blog posts were the best of the semester. I like that there's more development and dialogue, less summary and agreement in your responses. More of that!
Have a great weekend.
