Week 2: Thematic Reading Discussion
Based on our thematic readings for this week, “Pray for Me”(https://youtu.be/vS-Iv2PaV8s) and “Goodbye to All That,” respond to the following questions:
What are the similarities in the reasons for which the characters in the texts move? What are the differences?
Both texts deal with movement of people to a relatively more urban space. How does each of those instances of moving to the city work out in the texts?
Does moving lead to fulfillment for these characters? If yes, explain why you think so. If no, explain what happens to these characters when they find themselves in those new spaces.
Give specific examples from the texts to substantiate your response.
Your post should be about 300 words.
