S2 Ep. 08: "The Bet," by Anton Chekhov
Description
Welcome to The Fast and the Fictitious. In each episode, students in English 2410, a Dual Enrollment Fiction course, will deep dive a story, highlight key takeaways, and relate the themes of the story to their lives.
In this episode, Clare and Ben are joined by a former English 2410 student, Kahlia Clark. The trio talk about Anton Chekhov’s, “The Bet,” a story about a young lawyer who bets that he can stay locked in a cell for 15 years for a two million dollar prize. In addition to the big questions raised by the story, the trio talk about the relationship between writer and reader and what their death row meals would be. We hope you enjoy.
