Mythology Narrative

Read the following essay, "Two Wheeled Greek Chorus," from the NY Times and answer the following questions about it:

-What allusion to mythology does she make?  What purpose does this allusion serve?
-How is the essay organized?  Make a very basic outline.

Use the "Two Wheeled Greek Chorus" as a mentor text/model for your essay.  Consider how Eliot Holt organizes her piece and how you might use this as a guide.  We will discuss this together in class.
