AP LIT: Read Part 2, chapters 1, 2, 3

We read and discussed part two, chapter 1:

If you were absent, answer these questions:
How would a usual criminal respond to an 11 mt. long interrogation?
Howare the trial preparations like a game?
In what way is Meursault an outsider?
Why is the magistrate more interested in Meursault than the case?

Chapter 2, I read aloud and we made notes as we went along. Please get the notes from a friend. Focus on how Meursault adjusts to prison life.

Chapter 3, we started reading during class. Be sure to complete it at home. This chapter is the trial. Notice the light imagery. Notice the reactions of the jury and the witnesses. What is really on trial here?
