"Hotel California" Lyrics PDF
Close read and annotate the lyrics to the Eagles' "Hotel California"  through the lens of The Great Gatsby.  What rhetorical devices can you identify? What is their significance and how are they connected to The Great Gatsby?

Notice patterns and juxtapositions.  What allusions are present?  What events or characters from The Great Gatsby do the images remind you of?

Be prepared to participate in a discussion (Socratic Seminar) next week.
