Today's text: Steinbeck's To a God Unknown. Bring on the environmental theory! Landscape defined in terms of sensory detail as per Of Mice and Men (which came later, of course). Love the shift from benign to capricious - nay, omnipotent! - natural world. Actually, love the shift from Of Mice and Men to different Steinbeck text altogether as have seen M and M soooo many times when tutoring for GCSE Eng.
On the subject of which... congratulations to GCSE students. Star of the moment: Nick - shifted from C in lang and lit to A grades in both (with the help of a little tutoring). Fantastic achievement, Nick!
