Marion
Honestly , not sure where to start with this story. I will say that i definitely felt very confused and quite uncomfortable with this story. I feel like this story shows two girls who are in a rush to grow up. We see that they have parents who aren't exactly the model parents. It feels weird reading about thirteen year olds getting naked and taking porn style pictures to give to men. I got the vibe that the main character in the story developed feelings for Marion. We see Marion wanting to impress the men in a sexual way, but we also the main character and get the feeling that in a way she is turned on by Marion. Overall its a strange story, between the weed growing and the fact that these teenagers are around men and all, its odd.

Also, the fact that Marion's father kisses both her and the other girl on the lips is very weird and uncomfortable for me to read. We see that in the end Marion gets the girl in trouble because ultimately she wants to get her out of the picture because she believes she is competition.
ReplyDeleteGood response, Fabiana. Do you think the story is meant to make us feel uncomfortable? I wonder. The narrator seems so mater-of-fact. It doesn't seem like she is troubled by anything, even being asked to knock out her friend's tooth. Maybe that's what is disturbing?
