Review vocabulary
From prior class
3. Gumboot Dhlamini: How does Fugard develop Gumboot's story? Why does Fugard develop his story so completely?
From last night's reading
1. Form analysis: what effect does the repetition of "You could drink" have on the tone of the opening of chapter 2? What is Fugard trying to tell us about the culture of the township?
2. Close reading at p.20, paragraph beginning: "Tsotsi hated the questions for a profound but simple reason. ... He was as old as tht moment, and his name was the name, in a way, of all men."
3. Close reading at p. 31, bottom paragraph ("He didn't stop again until ... "), through p. 33, top two lines (... as distant echoes of those around them.")
4. Look for passages that relate to Tsotsi's identity. How does Tsotsi identify himself? What is meaningful to him? Who does he see himself as?
