Discuss the target of satire in any one of the three short stories this week.
What social or institutional flaw is the author making fun of in this story? (In other words, what is the target of his satire?)
Where in the story does the satire come across most clearly to you? (Is one character primarily the focus of the satire? Is it the entire plot?)
