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.

Ending of Carpenters Gothic

    I  feel that this story was a very confusing story. There were many parts that i understood but there were parts that I was confused about what was going on. In the end of the story I found out a lot of things the characters were doing. I learned that Liz is sleeping with Mc. Candless, and Paul is having an affair with Liz' bestfriend. Also in the end I learned that Liz dies. I was very confused on how Liz died. The way I look her death was that she was killed. From the story jumping around in so many ways, I never really understood what caused her death. The last sentence of the story has no punctuation mark. The reason I feel that there is no mark is because I feel that Giddus wanted the readers to try and think about what will happen in the future since Liz basically doesnt exist anymore.  I want to know what happens to Mc. Candless since he lost his lover. Also what happens to Paul and Liz' bestfriend. Will Paul ever get karma for any actions he did towards Liz.
 I think I would read this book once more in the future so I can try and analyze each that I did not understand.
