Please join the Kaplan Institute for this 75-minute creative session where we will discuss character development in Vigil and other of George Saunders’ work, with a special emphasis on building unlikeable characters. This conversation will serve as a foundation for our own creative efforts. The second half of the session will offer students guided creative writing prompts exploring different ways to portray a jerk on the page. This session is open to all students, and no creative writing experience is required. Lunch will be served. Please sign up to ensure adequate catering and materials are available.
This Campus Reading Program event is co-sponsored by the Kaplan Institute for the Humanities and the Litowitz Center for Enlightened Disagreement.
