In Cuban I Was A German Shepherd Analysis
My favorite story for all semester is "In Cuba I Was a German Shepherd" written by Ana Menendez. The story is written in very simple way. When someone start to read this story the reader may feel that it's written people's day pass. However , the story brought very important message about circumstances when the political change in the country effect on public career. This is about political harassment and life to survive. This story is very different than other story in my semester. Few people may not understand this story because this is not about butterfly in fairy tale and rose flower in love story. This is about the life experience that someone between us may go through. This story helps reader to stimulate the feeling of co-operation

    Another interesting story was “Anguiano Religious Articles”. This was a very creatively written story which not only utilized a large amount of cultural depictions and imagery, but it was also very religiously humorous. Told from the perspective of a woman, the story describes her hatred toward a store owner. Before journeying to the store, she is told that this store owner is a “crab ass”. The story is very short, but humorous…

    Mericans By Cisneros Summary

    I was most drawn to “Mericans” as the story provokes a gratitude of thought, displays the rawness of cultural diversity through the Mexican church and resonates with the innocence of childhood through the eyes of Micaela. The author, Cisneros, brings to life the full reality of the livelihood of Mexican Americans through this story. In “Mericans” we are offered an opportunity to look inside the family dynamics of a Mexican family and how they are often misunderstood through their custom. We are also afforded the opportunity to visualize a church that plays a cornerstone in their culture. This literary display is why I feel that the story “Mericans” is the best choice for nomination.…

It shows that people must adapt and consider new ideas and the impact of words, no matter the age. It is applicable to people of every generation. It is truly a story that also engages many audiences, including history, fantasy, and political. It does this by having multiple layers to the story going back to 1692 to the Salem witch trials and, 1950 to McCarthyism. The story is relevant to each person, no matter the…

    To Build A Fire, By Jack London

    In the story “To Build a Fire” by Jack London, a man of inexperience, stubbornness, and lack of imagination embarks on the less traveled route of the Yukon trail without a companion or any means of survival resources at his disposal. In fact, the only necessity that was given an ounce of thought was the man’s lunch for that very evening, sticking close to his bare chest so the food would not freeze. The man, however, decided that his husky’s company would be enough of an aide as he makes his way to meet his boys at a campsite before night fall. Never to have experienced true winter, the man sets off in the fifty below zero freezing weather, ignoring the words of the old-timer.…
