Description
In this first lesson of the unit, students are introduced to a new text, “The Palace Thief,” a short story by Ethan Canin. Students continue to build the reading skills they began in 10.1.1 as they read and analyze pages 155–160 of “The Palace Thief.” Students pay particular attention to how Canin introduces the character of the narrator, Hundert, and explore how the narrator’s first impressions of Sedgewick develop the complex relationship between teacher and student.
