In today’s lesson, students were introduced to the genre of the novella, a type of short story that often focuses on a central plot and is typically between one and five pages long. The discussion highlighted the structure of a novella, which generally includes a quick development of the story, a clear beginning, middle, and end, and a limited number of characters whose depth is less pronounced compared to those in a novel. Various examples of popular novellas, such as “The World of Wenda and Rozi” by George Zammit, were mentioned to illustrate these concepts. Students were encouraged to explore these stories to enhance their understanding of the genre.
