I agree that I disliked the story since it felt it didn't really have a point other than admit the narrator was in denial for most of the story. I kept thinking that it was unfair for him to call a stranger "god" when it was just a regular person who ended up causing him to have a revelation later. We never find out much about anyone else other than the narrator and his regrets.
I agree with you the story is mainly about the narrator and his revelation about himself.
ReplyDeleteCan you guys say more about why a short story should be "about" more than simply a life-changing revelation?
