Disclaimer: This episode contains one use of explicit language during the passage read aloud from Chapter 1 of The Night Circus.
In this episode, we look at the opening chapter of The Night Circus, by Erin Morgenstern. First, I’ll read the chapter aloud before exploring key passages with a close reading. We’ll look at the literary devices used to create and deliver wonder and intrigue and explore the use of the second-person perspective. You’ll then be given an exercise to try at home.
