Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 204 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations before we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

There was a main scene in this part that had caught my main attention. It was when Pecola was facing menstruation, babies, and naked men. She was scared that something was happening to her because she did not know what was going on because she did not have someone who can explain to her what was going on. She had to face it mainly on her own. She had Maureen to introduce what was mainly going on. The main people to comfort her where the 3 women living upstairs. I feel that every child boy and girl should be able to have someone to talk to about the real things that people have to face in life. It helps make things clearer and more understanding. This is something Pecola didn't have growing up. She mainly had the experience of her father getting her pregnant. That had to be such a traumatizing moment for Pecola that sadly she will never forget.
