Finish Housekeeping.
Then, read:
-- "Sojourning Women: Homelessness and Transcendence in Housekeeping," by Anne-Marie Mallon, [this contains some plot spoilers; make sure you finish the book first] and
-- "When I Was a Child" by Marilynne Robinson.
I handed these two articles out in class tonight; for those of you who were absent, I've left copies in my mailbox in the English Department (2308 Boylan). Make sure you take one of each. The Mallon article you can download via the library's e-journal databases, if you want. The Robinson article, no such luck.
For homework, please continue your list of themes/leitmotifs, and quotes/examples. I expect this week's list to be twice as long as last week's, and to contain quotes/pages from all the way through to the end.
