Imagery "The Californian's Tale"




1.       What scenes, moments, descriptive passages, phrases, or words stand out in your reading of the story?
The scenes that Henry show the room of his wife, it give me the image that the room is very clean, everything was on keep place, it let me feel that that person is just went out the room for a while. This scene was before the narrator tell that his wife was already passed away.

2.       Did a particular image make you feel happy, or frightened, or disturbed, or angry? Why?
The particular image made me feel frightened and some image made me feel sad. I feel frightened and sad at the same time that knowing his wife was already gone; she can never come back any more. Imagine like somebody that you love is never getting back again, it made me feel the same way. I can really feel it because in my real life I also had experience the same thing.


3.       Which of your five senses did this image appeal to? What do you associate with this image, and why? What do you think the author wants you to feel about a certain image?
I senses of sight, the image made me think of the room of his wife that has already passed away a long time, but the room was well kept and just like her just go out of the room. The author wants me to feel the same feeling as the main character Henry’s in the story.

4.       How do you think you reactions to the imagery in the story contribute to the overall meaning of the story?     
The imagery made me want to go back to imagine again and again about was is happening. This story needs a lot of imagination, without the imagination in this story it will be not fun.
