"B" Day April 23: Forsberg's class

If you were gone on Wednesday and want to make up the assignment, read "The Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" (a link can be found on the blog) and take notes on examples from the text that illustrate it's postmodern. Be sure to include your definition of Postmodernism, textual evidence from the story, and warrant that explains how/why the evidence illustrates your definition. I will need to get this from you by May 1st for it to count for points.
