In Cold Blood- Capote

Just thought I'd see if anyone else is doing Capote on the exam? It's a tough text but once you get past the topical issues there are some good views and values to comment on.

2013: [aiming] Revs (40), Lit (40)... I can dream, Australian Hist (38) , Art (35), Global Politics (35)

-will be posting my notes after my last exams if anyone is interested-

We're doing it, I'd say it's my favourite text we've done all year and I'll definitely write on it for the exam.

This ABC podcast is quite useful if your teacher hasn't given it to you already, maybe the second half more than the first since there's a bit of summary to begin with.

We're doing it, I love it. Though we had our Imaginative Response task on it, and I'm struggling with to move into a close analysis mindset; what interpretations do you guys usually build towards?
