Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close
(But No Cigar)
Pages 1-107

Due: BY FRIDAY APRIL 10TH

You’ve struggled and strained and finally generated a topic for your final project.

Now some loser goes and assigns you a whole new illustrated novel to read. And he expects you to write about it. Doesn’t he realize there’s a final project to complete?!

Actually, he does.

For this exploration, you are to find some way to connect Foer’s novel to your final project, then write about EL&IC in relation to that connection.

It’s all too easy to develop tunnel vision when working on a project. Let this brief exploration help you to think laterally about the issues, possibilities, and problems relating to your final project. Your engagement with your final project will benefit.
