“Everyday Use” by Walker Essay

Although I enjoyed E veryday Use by Walker, I did not find the inaugural person point of post to be as effective as I would have liked it to be. By writing the stratum from florists chrysanthemums point of view Walker denies the reader a detect to gain cortical potential to how the other characters are feeling most the situation. The bilgewater tends to give the reader a bias opinion of the events that occur in the fabrication. I believe that if Walker had used an wise point of view instead of a first person point of view the story would have been a lot to a greater extent effective. Mama had a very bias opinion of Dee and by using her point of view for the story the reader may adopt her opinion.But had Walker used an wise point of view the reader could have gained insight into Dees thoughts and feelings. With the gained insight the reader would be given the chance to form his or her give opinion of Dee. Further insight into Dees thoughts and feelings would explain to the reader why Dee acts so superior to Mama and Maggie. The reader would get an idea of whether she genuinely did feel superior or if she was trying to hide her true feelings. An omniscient point of view would also give the reader insight into Maggies thoughts and feelings.Being a younger sister myself I couldnt abet but wonder how Maggie felt about her sister. Mama gives the impression that Maggie feels about Dee the same way she does. With an omniscient point of view the reader would have it away whether or not this is true. When given more personal insight into characters I find that I feel more empathy towards them and enjoy the story more. It makes it more memorable and meaningful for me.
