Assignment

In
the culinary world, restaurants and chefs are always under review. They
are critiqued in publications, on Internet Web sites, and in culinary
circles. A star can propel a restaurant into popularity, while its
removal can be devastating. However, a diner need not be Anthony
Bourdain to review a meal. Anyone who wants to critique a local
establishment can go online and create a review on numerous Internet
sites.

The
literary world operates in much the same way. Almost every online
bookstore contains reviews to help guide readers toward selecting
fiction that might suit them. Most of these are written by the general
public and are based on personal opinion. For this lesson, you will not
be asked to create a scholarly analysis, but rather, an informal review
of a short story from the assigned Week 1 reading list. Now, it is your
turn to be a critic. Have fun and be creative.

Select the following:

• 1 of the short stories from this week’s reading assignment
