Good analysis Tiet Gan, I am impressed you seemed to have used the setting to predict the story. But please identify the exact setting like what country it is in? Which city? Which Town etc. When, refers to the historical time period, events of which obviously influence the story.
ReplyDeleteHi Tiet Gan I can very clearly understand the point you are trying to get across but perhaps you can work out the formatting problem because it is
ReplyDeletequite jarring to read. Also labelling all your posts by the same name made navigation slightly difficult. Aside from those, your blog is generally well maintained and easy to navigate.
Your analysis are very good and I like them but you seem to be missing out on the time period. Your setting is too exact as I think what Mrs. Anu wants is the city/town it took place at. I like the design on how the words are presented across to the viewers. Overall, good job!
ReplyDeleteI think your post is quite good. It is good that I can see you predicting the whole story based on the setting. However, I thought Mrs Anu mentioned that the setting of a story is the city or town, what specific year or era and the characters' mannerism? Anyway, overall, Great job.
