Fun Home A fresh and brilliantly told memoir from a cult favorite comic artist, marked by gothic twists, a family funeral home, sexual angst, and great books. A darkly funny family tale, pitch-perfectly illustrated with Bechdel’s sweetly gothic drawings. Like Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis, it’s a story exhilaratingly suited to graphic memoir form.

Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, there has never been a truly satisfactory English translation of the Qur’an, until now. Haleem also includes explanatory notes, a topic index, and an introduction that traces the history of the Qur’an, examines its structure and stylistic features, and considers issues related to militancy, intolerance, and the subjection of women.

Billy Budd, Bartleby, and Other Stories

If Moby Dick can be claimed as the Great American Novel, then Melville’s short works are the Great American Stories. In the sorrowful tragedy of Billy Budd, Sailor; the controlled rage of Benito Cereno; and the tantalizing enigma of Bartleby, the Scrivener; among others; Melville reveals himself as a a poet of ambiguities, inviting myriad readings rather than inscribing singular truths.

(Cause/Effect)

Cause/Effect

Directions: To plot cause and effect in Twilight, first list the sequence of events. Then decide

whether each event was a cause or an effect by placing a checkmark in the appropriate column.

If an event is both a cause and an effect, you may place a checkmark in both columns.

Another way to map cause and effect is to look for an effect and then backtrack to the single

or multiple causes. List one effect from Twilight, and then trace it back to three contributing

causes. Cause:

Twilight

Activity #12 • Comprehension

Use During and After Reading

(Cause/Effect)

Cause/Effect

Directions: To plot cause and effect in Twilight, first list the sequence of events. Then decide

whether each event was a cause or an effect by placing a checkmark in the appropriate column.

If an event is both a cause and an effect, you may place a checkmark in both columns.

Another way to map cause and effect is to look for an effect and then backtrack to the single

or multiple causes. List one effect from Twilight, and then trace it back to three contributing

causes. Cause:
