Mapping out "Hell-Heaven"

Here's a map of Jhumpa Lahiri's story "Hell-Heaven," created by Sasha and Maddie. After talking about ways this story is similar to The Great Gatsby (the students found more connections than you'd think!), we spent some time mapping out important points in the story. This map shows some thoughtful and nuanced reading of the story; they picked out some very important images and made some strong connections. Check it out!
I think it's my lurking shadow that makes this map look dark and mysterious...or maybe it's that turkey...
