Graduate-only courses are precious and rare (great in-depth discussion, more personal attention, 20 students or less). Sign up now, while seats are still available!
WR 554 - Writing About Violence
Taught by Debra Gwartney
This course will confront the challenges of writing about the dynamic of violent acts, from domestic abuse to the individual response to war, and the exquisite care—tone, syntax, imagery, pacing—required to portray such searing episodes. Books include Youth (Coetzee); Bastard Out of Carolina (Allison); Father of All Things (Bissell); Survival in Auschwitz (Levi); A Woman in Berlin (Anonymous). This course is restricted to graduate students in the writing program; instructor approval required (gwartney@pdx.edu). Please email if you're interested or if you want more information.
