Larry Watson's Montana 1948. Be sure to include quotes from the text (with the correct citation, of course) to support your answer! You may, of course, use additional sources, but be sure to document them if you do and provide a Works Cited page; you must use the text itself in your answer. 1. Montana 1948 includes many elements of the traditional 'Western' story: is it, in fact, a Western? Why or why not? In what ways is it like, or unlike, a 'traditional' Western? Which one (traditional or untraditional) do you like better, and why? Be sure you define what a Western is in your answer! 2. Modern novels are supposed to show the development of their characters. Pick one of the characters in Montana 1948 and show your reader how he or she develops (or fails to develop) over the course of the novel. Did you find the portrayal of that character to be realistic (i.e. believable) or not? Why or why not? 3. Besides the obvious choice, who (or what!) killed Marie Little Soldier? Explain and defend your choice(s) in detail, with appropriate references to the text to support your argument.
