No Address

I think the most fascinating part of Griffin and Sabine are the last postcards in the book. There are no addresses on these postcards, but the correspondence suggests that the postcards were still received. I think this could lend credibility to the theory that Sabine is a figment of Griffin's imagination and he is actually crazy. I also noticed how the postcards get darker and moodier towards the end, and I wonder about the random stamp on one of the blank white pages in the end.

I felt really afraid at the first glance when I saw the postcard that without stamp and postmark. From that postcard that I partly agree with your opinion that SABINE was GRIFFIN's imagination. But I also believe that SABINE could be a phantom or a ghost that really exist. What I think about the increasingly dark postcard style is since they started to know each other better, and then they started to show their true features. I did not notice the last stamp. Probably that is a signal of what SABINE truly represents?

Each student will be required to make one comment per week about the discussion. Each comment should be at least a short paragraph in length (3-5 sentences). Comments can be responses to discussions already underway on the blog or in class. I will judge comments based on the insightfulness of the commentary and the tendency to provoke further discussion; they fall under the participation portion of the grade. Students must remember to be respectful of other people’s ideas, even if they do not agree with them. As the blog administrator, I will eliminate any posting that I deem inappropriate.
