Discussion: Strayed, Weisel, and Walker

无未读答复。11 个答复。

After reading the narrative essays of the above authors, write paragraphs about HOW THE ESSAYS were built. Describe the language, describe the themes, describe the tone, describe what was particularly moving. Which of the essays seemed strongest? Can you think of a few reasons why that might be?

Write a paragraph dedicated to each essay and write at least 8 sentences per paragraph. Thanks!
