1. When I teach Neruda’s “The Book of Questions” in a face-to-face classroom setting, as an experiment, we try to phrase every one of our spoken sentences during that class session as a question. This never works perfectly, but it does lead to some humorous and illuminating insights. I would ask that we attempt that approach here in this discussion board–if we can let’s attempt to pose each of our contributions to this thread as a rhetorical question that not only asks but “says” something about this week’s two texts.
