WRT 201: Essay #2: Short Story Analysis Professor Baldassare During the first few weeks of this semester, we have read a number of short stories, including "The Lottery" and "Good Country People." Several other excellent short stories are featured in the "Anthology of Short Fiction” section of our textbook, including William Faulkner's “A Rose for Emily," John Updike's "A&P" and Louise Edrich's "The Red Convertible." For this assignment, you are asked to choose a short story that we have not discussed in class and then analyze it. In other words, you will deconstruct the text to see how the elements we've discussed (theme, imagery and symbolism, setting, foreshadowing) contribute to the interpretation and meaning of the work. Depending upon the story you choose, you may wish to concentrate on just one or two of these elements, or all of them. However you choose to perform this analysis, it will need to be at least 500 words (about two pages). The final version will be typed, double-spaced, in MLA style. Due date: March 20, 2019
