The three short stories I read were "Hills like white elephants" by Ernest Hemingway, "The sniper" by Liam O'Flaherty, "Occurrence at Owl Creek"by Ambrose Bierce. I chose to do the sniper beacuse i thought that it had a literacy trait that was important. This literacy trait is setting.
I think that this is an important trait because if we weren't in this area we would didn't have this brother vs. brother. The theme of this book is war can turn anyone against each other even Brothers.
I missed the day when we went over this in class and i am really confused about what exactly we are supposed to do. Though I get the basis.
Thanks for reading,
Cameron

I also read "Hills Like Whit Elephants" and "The Sniper". They were both really good books and I also directed that in my literary anaylisis that setting was a key element in these stories.
ReplyDelete"The Sniper" was my favorite short story of all. It was only two pages but it was filled with litercy elements.
ReplyDeleteI also thought "The Sniper" was the best of the short stories I read. I think characterization was an important literary element in that story.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like everyone read "the Sniper" I read it just for fun one day just to see what everyone was talking about, and I agree its a great short story.
