Please write a 500-word double-spaced interpretive response to “Big Two-Hearted River: Part I,” or “Big Two-Hearted River Part II.” You may write about either or both of the stories, as you wish. As the assignment suggests, your response should interpret the story or stories and give good evidence to support your conclusions. Work in your paper to explain what the story or stories mean and how Hemingway creates that meaning. Remember that it’s not enough simply to say what you think the story or stories mean; you need to explain why you’ve interpreted it or them the way you have. You may wish to consider the ways in which one or both of these stories interact with the other Nick Adams stories you’ve read.Please write a 500-word double-spaced interpretive response to “Big Two-Hearted River: Part I,” or “Big Two-Hearted River Part II.” You may write about either or both of the stories, as you wish.
