What We Talk About When
We Talk About Love
Directions:
Choose one question for each story and write a short (2-4 paragraph) response
for each. Use quotes from the story in your response.
What We Talk About When
We Talk About Love
- Analyze Carver's setting. Where
is this piece set? How does the description of the setting, and the
way the setting changes, lead us to an understanding of his characters
and their views on love?
- How does each of the characters
define love? How does each character act in his or her relationship?
Are the characters' actions consistent with the way they define love?
- What do we talk about
when we talk about love? How do you think Carver would define love?
Why do you think that?
- Free choice: create a question
about the short story, and respond to it.
