CM 1145- Literary Analysis 2

So in the upcoming week I will be working on my literary analysis assignment where I have to use a critical approach and analyze a book, short story, or three poems. I am going to do a historical analysis on the short story Stones by Timothy Findley. This was by far my favorite short story that we read in CM 1120. I think it should be really easy to do this as well since I've done multiple essays on this subject, including my research essay last semester, which looked at the history behind the story. This is good, but it also means that I will have to be wary of what I write since I don't want to make a carbon copy of my previous essay. This is a pretty short entry but I can't really think of much more I can write about the literary analysis, I just thought I'd share the topic for my essay since I'm pretty happy that I got to choose it for my subject.

  1. loved that story last semester as well. Regardless of how his father treated him after he came back from the war he still loved him unconditionally. It was so sad in the end when his father was dying and he realised what he had done to his family. His son was the only one there for him as he died. It's sad to think that if his son hadn't forgiven his father for all the wrong he had done he might have died alone. I think this story will is a great choice for your critical analysis. There is so much you can draw on from this story.
