My favorite and in my opinion the most interesting thing we did last week was read the short story Bullet in the Brain. To begin, I believe the writing done by Tobias Wolff was absolutely brilliant. Not only was the story compelling and funny, it was also interesting and really made you think deeper into the material you were reading.
The most enjoyable (yet unfortunate) part of the reading for me was when Anders burst out laughing and was ultimately shot in the head. All these so-called important things in his laugh didn't flash by him. It was a moment in time when this book critic who's job is to demoralize people didn't speak up. He was worried that people would take his humor the wrong way. That was a purely aesthetic moment.
