You know, something I find kind of weird on this forum is that there have been something like 18000 views of the various AMR threads, but to date only 15 replies. Why the reticence? Come out of the closet Amanda fans! Say it loud, say "I'm into this stuff!"
So I'm going to suggest a challenge: who out there is prepared to write a quick response to one of the following questions?
1) According to writer Mario Vargas Llosa, 'literature is fire, . . . it means non-conformity and rebellion'. What is rebellious or non-conformist about an AMR novel or novels you have read?
2) In a letter to a friend, AMR said that she expected that people would still be talking about her 1000 years later. To what extent do you think she will attain such immortality?
3) 'The role of the novelist is to ask questions and explore issues about society'. Discuss this with detailed reference to a work by AMR.
