Betrayal cuts deep and can lead us to exact revenge and, possibly, to forgive, which can heal both us and the other. In this course, we will look at these strong emotions through the eyes of some of the great writers. The readings for the course include four novels and a play.

• The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
• Embers by Marai Sandor
• The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark
• Madame Bovary by Gustav Flaubert
• King Lear by William Shakespeare

I’m looking forward to seeing you.
