During this break I read Nervous Conditions chapters 6 and 7. I understand the book more after getting this far. I found that having this much time to reading the chapters really helped me. Whenever I have 2 days, I usually have so much homework and I end up reading the whole chapter the 2nd day and it's very stressful. I end up rushing through the chapter and not doing good annotations.
I was suprised by the 7th chapter when Tambu arrived back at the homestead. Things changed a lot. Her mother seemed to be really down and not well. I was thinking that part of it could be that Tambu left. She now has 2 kids gone and she is falling apart. Also, she might be jealous that Tambu is getting the education that she never got. I'm wondering if her mother is going to end up dying too or if she will become well again and be happy with the new changes in her life.
I'm not sure if I'm supposed to log my reading but I ready chapter 6 on Wed. and Thurs. and chapter 7 sat. and sun.
Elise, I agree with you when you said that Tambu's mother seemed down. I think she just misses her kids and wish they were back with her at the homestead. Good post !
ReplyDeleteElise, I think the book is getting more and more interesting now. I agree with you that spend more time reading the book can help me understand it more.
