What I'm writing about (Miguel)
I'm thinking of writing letters to some of the characters in response to what I have been reading. I think this will allow me to understand more in depth what I'm reading. I'm also thinking of working in a comic strip of what is going on in the story. The reason why I want to do a comic strip/or a visual is because all these characters have a very animated feel to them. When I read the story and discuss it in class I get a mental image of all the characters. Therefore, I think it will be interesting to see them come to life and maybe write a response as to why I decided to depict them like that. I'm still thinking about what I'm going to do but for the most part I'm leaning towards something like this.

Comic strips or caricatures would be a great approach to this project. As you'll see here -- http://www.flickr.com/photos/85009674@N00/sets/72157606351253092/ -- the CZ has produced some fantastic cartoonists. These images of Svejk are still very present. Political and literary cartoons are very much a staple of Czech cultural life. Also there's a good deal of graffiti -- some of it publicly sponsored, some not.
