The Readings of a World Lit.Student
Upon completion of my World Lit. class I have chosen to write about my favorite stories First off I enjoyed reading "The Barrelmaker Brimful of Love", I really liked the story. I had no problem reading it, unlike others ( Frankenstein! & Celebi). Also this story had many story lines going on at one time. I truly enjoyed the "sexual aspect" and the unexpected ending. The main thing I liked was the insight into Japanese culture. One of my favorite characters is "the Old women" or also referred to as "Old Nanny". She was a funny character who tried to play matchmaker. I also enjoyed "Hedda Gabler", which was another sexual charged story. I liked how it was a play. The story was jammed packed with action, with twist and turns. I personally didn't like how Hedda killed herself, but then again it does make for the best ending. Overall I enjoyed the readings that were chosen ( except for Frankenstein).
