The Alchemist - Portland Public Schools
The Alchemist Unit written by: Gene Brunak 1 Introduction to Unit Concerns have been expressed about the pessimistic nature of the body of works widely available and taught at the sophomore level (Of Mice and Men, Night, Animal Farm, Lord of the Flies, to name a few) and the dearth of material that might provide a more optimistic perspective on things for the 10th graders. The Alchemist (by Paulo Coelho) would appear to be an opportunity to offer a story which provides hope, while also offering 10th grade students a contemporary example of something other than a Western perspective (in an academic year which frequently viewed as a survey of world literature ). Having been translated into 41 languages, the novel has captured the imagination of a wide audience beyond the United States; it could serve to help our students as they become citizens of the world.
