PROGRESSION I: Exercise #2: Letter to Author
► READ “The Jacket†(handout), comparing and contrasting it with the “The Story of an Hour†that you have
read already while simultaneously paying attention to what the second author is saying and how he conveys his
thematic ideas.
► WRITE a letter to Gary Soto, the author of “The Jacket.†As a way of generating the letter, respond to some
key concept that you discovered in “The Story of an Hour†for Progression #1, Exercise #1. In your letter, seek
not to praise the writer but to earn the writerâ€s praise through your engaging, thoughtful analysis of the authorâ€s
personal essay. Try to elicit a response in return (without directly asking for one) by saying something about a
main idea from the essay. Also, reference Kate Chopinâ€s story in your assessment of Sotoâ€s essay.
Your letter should be two to three double-spaced pages long. You must make clear in the text of your letter
what story and essay you are writing about, and what phrases, images, or ideas you are discussing.
(Do not tell Soto that you are writing to satisfy a class requirement.)
