Provide a thoughtful and well developed response to each of the following questions. Support your answer with specific details and quotes from the assigned literature. Note: you must provide specific evidence/quotes from the literature to support your response to each question in order to get full credit for your answer. (20 points each)
1. Why do you think the novel Home Fire begins with the story of Isma’s airport interrogation? Discuss the meaning of this incident and how it relates to other events in the novel, as well as the effect it had on you, the reader.
2. How do you feel about Karamat Lone’s attitudes and insistence on assimilation, as reflected in the “You are, we are, British” speech (see page 90)? Is what he expects of immigrant communities fair and reasonable? How so or why not?
3. Think about how media (social media and traditional media) functions in Home Fire. How does this compare with the Chorus in Antigone? What are these works suggesting about how media influences our perceptions of the world? How relevant is this point in American society today?
4. Karamat Lone is the antagonist of Home Fire in the same way Creon is the antagonist in Antigone. Do you think either or both of these leaders is a villain (see definition of this term from earlier this semester)? How so or why not? Can you understand their perspective? Do you agree with their actions?
