The first short story I read was entitled, A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I thought this was a great story. The story was about a man with wings that was found face down on the ground. He was an old man found by a couple and later put into their chicken coupe. He was a spectacle to the town. Many wandered if he was an angle, devil or a just a man. At the end of the story, he disappeared by flying away. I will be doing my argument on this short story. I don't know exactly what it is that I want to do, but I loved this story.
The second short story was entitled, The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. I started to read this one and I thought it was boring. Started talking about this woman and her husband who is a doctor. Then it spoke of the different rooms in this house and yellow wallpaper. I sort of drifted soon after that (just being honest). Yet, I was full tuned to the first short story that I read!
