I read To Build A Fire by Jack London yesterday, and it was odd. I enjoyed the writing and the descriptions, but it was definitely not something I would pick for myself. My favorite character was the dog. I liked the dog's instincts. It was kind of creepy, though. It had a lot to do with death, and the main character's death, and that was part of what made it creepy. I liked the Tell Tale Heart better.
I also enjoyed writing my story with an unreliable narrator. It was so much fun - the one downside being that it was starting to give me goosebumps. I enjoy writing stories with unreliable narrators.
I agree I like the topic of the unreliable narrator story. But just like the hero story mine is starting to head in the wrong direction.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was good (your story, that is)! I guess I liked A Tell Tale Heart better, too. Anyway, I had a lot of fun writing my paper, but it's definitely still a work in progress!
ReplyDeleteClara, how did you read my short story? I agree with you, Maddy.
