Post #2: The Essay

Which essay did you like best? Explain your choice.

"In the Trenches" by Charles Yale Harrison

"The Suitcase Lady" by Christie McLaren
"The 51-Per-Cent Minority" by Doris Anderson

I really enjoyed reading In the Trenches; it used a lot of imagery, metaphors and similes to help describe what was happening. I think the reason I enjoyed reading In the Trenches was because I could visualize what was happening in the essay. Also the short paragraphs and one word lines kept me engaged in the text, I ended up reading the text faster toward the end because it made me eager to know what will happen next.
