Ex 2-2: Response to Truss (moved from Mar 23)
This book makes some students laugh, and makes other students furious. Examine your reaction to Lynn Truss, paying special attention to your choice to focus on English. Please note... this assignment does not simply ask you to list your reactions, or to cheer her on or attack her positions. Rather, this essay is your opportunity to examine the reactions that you have already expressed. Has your opinion of Truss, of punctuation, or the field of English studies changed? Rather than providing a laundry list of reactions, demonstrate your ability to focus on a single thesis, and develop it across several paragraphs.
