 A Sound of Thunder By Ray Bradbury (1952)


Rating: 7/10


The part that I was fun but also not quite interesting was when Eckles and his team came back to the "changed" future. Killing one butterfly has changed a lot in the future. I was fun because I didn't know that the theme 'butterfly effect' came from this story. However, I was not quite interesting because I knew what the butterfly effect is. If I read this story with not knowing about the butterfly effect, it would have been more interesting. 

I think this story would be a good moral to modern people. This story's moral is to warn the butterfly effect. When we do something, it will be related to our future. In nowadays, I think many people forget this. They just say and do what they want. So this story would be very good to people who do like it. These are the reasons why I rated this story 7 out of 10.

A Manual for Cleaning Woman, by Lucia Berlin (2015)

 A Manual for Cleaning Woman, by Lucia Berlin (2015) Rating: 7/10 This story was not very interesting to me. Especially, the writing style did not satisfised me. Its writing style was the reminiscences of the narrator, by looking at the buses passing through her. This made the short story complexed. Short stories are too short to know about the sub characters, especially like these madames in theins story. Their description is not very long to know about them and how the narrator felt about them. If there were more specific descriptions, I think thw story would have been fun, because there are some funny episodes like finding the puzzle piece etc. And also, it was difficult for me to understand the theme of this story. The narrator thinks about her past, and watches the laundry room and the people riding motorcycles, and she cries. At first, the final ending developed too fast to understand. After listening about the discussion, I realized that she felt a lot of things, for example...

An Encounter, By James Joyce (1914)

  An Encounter, By James Joyce (1914)  Rating: 8/10 The most sympathized part was to get out of the routine. Living in KMLA in a strict routine, makes me deviate. In this short story, the narrator and his friend Mahony make a deviation and wander around Dublin. And then they see many people and places and meet a man. I think this man has bad thoughts. He is so conservative. Maybe it is because of the Irish religion. Catholic is one of the strict and conservative religions that I know, so this man may be influenced by the religion. I liked this quote from the story. "But real adventures, I reflected, do not happen to people who remain home: they must be sought abroad." I think this is like a hint of this full story. Because of this thought, the narrator could break away and see the society, meet a man that was an encounter. From this encounter, the narrator could feel better about his friend.  I think both <An Encounter> and <Araby> are similar as a growth stor...

The Sisters, By James Joyce (1914)

  The Sisters, By James Joyce (1914) Rating: 6.5/10 I wanted to talk about Flynn's confess. In the story, there is no answer of what Flynn confessed. However, through reading the story, there were hints. For example, old Cotter doesn't like the relationship between the narrator and Flynn. And, the sisters also talk about the confess. What I think is that Flynn did something wrong to the narrator, so he comes out in the narrator's dream and keeps it reminded.  The reason I rated this story 6.5 is I read this three times but it is stil difficult for me to understand. I can't know what the death of Flynn symbols. And also I don't know a lot of the Irish culture so it makes me difficult too. (119 words)
