THE MAN IN THE WELL Jessica Evans March 11 Evaluating fiction Evaluate the characters: How interested or invested am I in the characters- I was drawn into this group of children and their choices not to help the man in the well. I like how the story progressed and the curiosity of whether they would help him out or not.

Furthermore‚ Ira C. Herbert’s letter establishes a serious mood. For example‚ he justifies that‚ “... We are writing to ask you to stop using this theme or slogan in connection with the book” which is informing that the The Grove Press must stop using “their” slogan(6-7). Herbert implants a serious mood in the reader when he decides to not use any positive words and just gets to the main point of his letter.

The Order No.1 was distributed by the provisional government‚ who had yet gathered up mind to act like a government‚ to regulate the garrison of the Petrograd District.

ENGL 2000 The Man in the Well By Ira Sher The entire time I was reading this story I couldn’t decide how I felt. The very first paragraph draws you in when the narrator mentions the day he discovered the man in the well. It’s immediately mentioned how the man calls out for help‚ but then skips to how the boy and his friends thought it was important that they decided not to save him. This paragraph almost immediately forces you to do a double take. When you first start reading and hear about the
