Alternate Realities in Short Fiction
All Levels | This class will focus on short stories that slightly shift reality in order to magnify our awareness of social constructs and the human condition. How do we create and write within these alternate realities? In addition to studying examples from George Saunders, Zadie Smith, Kevin Brockmeier, Karen Russell, and Ursula K Le Guin, we’ll also undertake in-class writing exercises that will help us explore the uncanny and the Kafkaesque.
Due to COVID-19, all classes will take place online-either through Zoom or through Wet Ink, our asynchronous learning platform-through Winter quarter 2021.
All times are listed in Pacific Time.
