"The Memory Book" Tre'

The Memory Book Tre’, I think that this story was filled with ambiguity, which is one of the aspects of experimental fiction. When reading this story I felt like there was a beginning and an end that was missing—as if this were an excerpt from a book. The way in which you describe the old woman is very drastic to me, and I like that—I think the way you used your words, drew a vivid picture of this old woman. However, some parts of the story did confuse me: I did not get the foil, where she was supposed to be located in the house, and I also couldn’t get whether she killed the mouse or if it were already dead. With all of those things in the air for me, I did draw my own conclusions, which was interesting because my second time reading it the conclusion I came to was different. I think that that fact could or could not be a good thing.
