Puzzle Pieces

Puzzles come in myriad shapes, sizes, and forms. Some are created intentionally; others arise out of ordinary and extraordinary situations. The following pieces grapple with puzzles in some way.

A Tribute to Trout Fishing in America

Richard Brautigan’s novel (or collection of connected vignettes) Trout Fishing in America has a semantic peculiarity: the phrase “trout fishing in America” can function as an adjective, a character, an act, and more. Similarly, or not so similarly, the following pieces, written by students in Class 9.B, use the phrase in whatever way they please.

Utopias and Dystopias

What perfect or nightmarish world, based on an idea, can you imagine and describe? Here are two projects by five students in Class 12.C.
