Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 201 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations BEFORE we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

Evie M

I enjoyed reading the story Evie M. I love a book that keeps you guessing, I think the author purposely didn't tell us if the narrator was a women or man but gave us hints that it could be both. I think the author wanted to see how the audience would be bias, when reading certain things the author did they just expect that to be a man saying or doing those things because you mostly see a man saying that for example the prt of ejaculating, it's very rare a women would come out and say that towards herself because in society a women is to carry herself a certain way and talk in a more proper manner and speaking like that wouldn't be considered "lady like" so the audience immediately would believe that is a man talking like that. I enjoyed the book very much, Evie seemed very disturbed though I feel like she was apologizing to her parents because they had a different future set up for her as her being their daughter and went she became a soldier instead maybe their relationship fell off.
