I also got to choose my ISP novel. The choices were as follows:
Title | Author |
Oryx and Crake | Margaret Atwood |
Year of the Flood | Margaret Atwood |
Green Grass Running Water | Thomas King |
The Concubine’s Children | Denise Chong |
Life of Pi | Yanna Martel |
A Fine Balance | Rohinton Mistry |
Lullabies for Little Criminals | Heather O’Neil |
Funny Boy | Shyam Selvaduri |
Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz | Mordecai Richler |
The Romantic | Babara Gowdy |
Even though there were only 10 choices, it was hard for me to decide on my ISP book: none of them aroused my interest. However, since there was a limit of five people per novel, I had to choose mine quickly, for the good ones may easily become unavailable. In a way it was like a huge sale in a store, where you needed to quickly grab an item before all the better ones got taken away by other people.
So I chose Oryx and Crake, for it was a dystopian novel and its description sounded more interesting than most others.
Added Note: ISP stands for Independent Study Project
