Did you like or dislike the story? Explain why. Give specific examples.

Consider at least a couple of the following elements of organization and style, and discuss what you noticed, and if it made the the narrative more or less effective for you. 

• Organization: Where she stared her story and ended it, and how she organized the incidents in between
• Language: The specific ways in which she uses language : Ex. having her mother talk in pidgin.
• Imagistic Details: The details of images and incidents that shes uses to shape her narrative. Ex: piano sheet music, the deaf piano teacher
• The balance between action and reflection; between the time she spends on telling specific incidents and the time she spends on thinking about those incidents. 
• The balance between the narrator then and the narrator now.
