A-Z essay choice #2

My favorite essay in the A-Z book is by Ms. Yolanda.

• The title is very eye catching, I liked it for no reason in particular
• The sentence structure varies regularly and is also very direct and to the point, not making any long digressions and the style is easily comprehended.
• The idea that character introductions are used as a tool to satirize the past is a common theme among all the essays but this essay presents it in a different form where instead of a byproduct of introducing characters through gossip, the whole goal of introducing characters using gossip as the medium is to critique society.
• The only real flaw that I can find with this essay is the fact that it uses a large number of lengthy quotes and the analysis can seem a bit like narrative of the story sometimes but otherwise the points are made clearly and effectively.
