INTRODUCTION TO LITERATURE (ENGL 150)

THE FAITHFUL WIFE-MORLEY CALLAGHAN
Morley Callaghan apparently was concerned late in life that people would remember him for one minor achievement: the little Canadian had knocked down the macho Ernest Hemingway in a boxing match refereed by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Callaghan preferred to be known for his novels. It's his short stories however that will be his lasting legacy—along with the fact that he knocked down Hemingway.

Using Callaghan's Work, The Faithful Wife, respond to the following questions and comment on two of your colleagues' posts. Cite evidence from the Work as support.

Why are Lola and George attracted to one another? In what ways does the winter setting serve as a catalyst?
