Asian Literature is a semester-long survey course to introduce students to writers from around the Asian continent, with a particular focus on places represented in our school demographics. Students will read novels, short stories, and a novella and encounter a variety of genres. Writing assignments will include research, personal response, an article for the school’s journalistic blog, and selection of an artistic piece for the senior class’s literary magazine (the Eagle’s Eye).

As this is a college preparatory course, the demands on students to think, read extensively, and write are considerable. This class meets the needs of students who do not pass the CLEP or AP Language tests.
