This conversational course is an exploration of the art of storytelling. Students will tell, read, and write short stories. We will focus on important decisions authors make regarding how to write a story: the nature of narrative voice, plot details, character development, symbols, and metaphors. Students will examine the structure and themes of short stories authored by Esteban Echeverría, Jorge Luis Borges, Juan Rulfo, Julio Cortázar, Elena Poniatowska, Isabel Allende, and Rosario Ferré (Fall 2021)
