Human SufferingLife is not always a bed of roses. It includes both pain and pleasure. Authors often include human suffering in their works to evoke feelings of compassion in the reader and to help us understand the human condition. Select a piece of literature you have studied this year. Analyze a character who has suffered. Use the questions to clarify your thoughts for a discussion in class regarding the role of suffering in life’s experiences.
