Journal Assignment
Collaboration with Shaffer and Barrows
For the ending of the novel The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, pages 250 to the end, add a character to the story.
1) Contextualize the addition of this character. In a paragraph, give the character a name, and specify where this character would appear (page number) and the purpose of including this character.
2) Help create a letter from your invented character to another actual character in the novel.
Everything (language, plot details, etc.) should be in keeping with the original work.
Don't change the ending with any outrageous "plot twists," etc. Use letter form, as modeled by the other letters in the novel.
Your letter should be at least half a page in length. (Alternatively, you could write a slightly shorter letter and then have one of the characters respond to your character or write a letter mentioning your invented character. This alternative possibility should also be at least half a page in length.)
