When I recently read Harrison Bergeron a ton of questions came into mind. I realized how imaginative the author has to be to come up with that type of insane description. Harrison is a very important yet ''dangerous'' character. I am slightly confused on the message the author is trying to give. I understand the part about wanting everyone to be treated equally; however, handicapping everyone didn't make sense. When we read "Da-duh'' I was so confused on why the grandmother was such a show off about sugar cane. She made a huge deal about living in St. Thomas. They had a very competitive relationship and it reminded me of me and my family. So far reading these short stories had helped me understand recognize plot, setting, and character. It also gives me good ideas for what I should write for my story. I really think reading these has helped me insert each specific aspect of writing into my writing.
