Essay 2 due: Sunday, June 7<\/p>\n

Click here to access complete essay<\/a> directions.<\/p>\n

For this assignment, you will locate a literary article (critique) from one of the BMCC library databases about one of the stories we have read in class so far. Unfortunately, it is very hard to find articles about “Salvation” because it is really an excerpt of a larger work. Therefore, you might have to focus on “Araby.” The other option is to read\u00a0 “A White Heron” or “A&P.” After you have located a literary article, you will be writing an introductory paragraph. This is the second step in building the final essay project for this course. For complete directions, click the link above.<\/p>\n
