Prompt: To what extent can it be said that Julio Cortázar’s “Axolotl” is about Europe and Latin America? If so, what is the story saying about the difference between these places, and/or about what it means for subjects from these places to communicate with—and understand—each other?
Your paper must contain a clear interpretative argument and be grounded in close readings of the text. Make sure to explain clearly and in your own words how every phrase or passage you quote from the text: (a) works or means what you say it does; and (b) supports your argument. Papers should consist of at least 1,250 words. No outside research or references to
secondary works is required or expected. Please do not use a thesaurus—just say what you want to say as clearly and precisely as you can in your own words.
