"The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest" second meeting tomorrow

We hope to all tomorrow for our second Millennium Series meeting of the academic year: 2nd meeting: Tuesday, November 13, from 12:30-1:30pm in UC412 Read up to page 200 if you can. (Refreshments will be served at all events) Join us as we continue our dialogue on how the topic of women and violence in the popular book and film relates to the USF community. A few questions to ponder: 1) Each part of "Hornet’s Nest" begins with a brief history lesson about women warriors. What do these short excerpts say about Larsson's triligy? About his subject matter? About Salandar and Berger? 2) In each of the three novels there is a specific group or institution that is scrutinized for its corrupt and perverted ways. What is the focus in this novel? How do Larsson's critiques of different institutions build on one another? 3) In the first part of "Hornet's Nest" Salandar is imprisoned in her hospital room, her every movement controlled. How is this setting different than the settings of the other two novels? 4) Who is on Salandar's side in this novel? Sponsored by The Women and Violence Research Group in collaboration with The Gender and Sexuality Center. For more information, please visit the Millennium Reading Blog: readingmillennium.blogspot.com
