A Rob-in or A Robin

Oh, Edna, substituting your feelings of "love," or hair affection, with a lesser man that does not mean much to anyone, other than his obligatory "scamp" status deemed by our beloved doctor and his clear view of human nature. Today's class, after vocab work, was about chapters 23-31, or when Edna kind of confuses her need for the "light" with Robert and starts lollygagging about with Alcee Arobin. Now, you can pronounce that the French way, but I always like to break it down a little differently. It could be a rob-in, as in taking what is not yours, i.e. a brigand. Or, could it be a robin, another bird trapped in a some sort of gender role cage? In either circumstance, names are fun.

In class, specifically, we had groups take charge of chapters for analysis. If you were absent, prep for chapter 31, which you will be in charge of next class.

Completion of the Awakening is expected for Tuesday.
