IMAGINARIUM: February 2009
http://jhayton.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 22, 2009. EN101 - 'Your Shoes' by Michele Roberts. Re-read the story so that you explore all the angles - a good story has layers which is what makes it worth reading in the first place. Being a first person narration it is naturally biased to one person's point of view. This has its advantages and disadvantages - it means you get to know the character extremely well but don't really get to explore what other character's think, and this is always very revealing.
