Week three work. post 2

The hardest part about this book and critical theory is trying to avoid reader’s response, there are much

 more interesting theories and I’m pretty sure everyone else is doing that one too. On the other hand from

 what I’ve learned in class some things in the text are left purposely ambiguous to either keep the story

 relevant or encourage discussion. Something that’s very difficult about the text are the Spanish parts, I sort

of feel like I’m missing some thing if I don’t understand what most of what the twins are saying, to me that

 don’t really exist at all. Without them the story would be more or less the same since every character

spends time with sonny on their own and almost never with anyone else in the apartment besides Cloyd and

Bud or Nica and Mr.Josep. in all honesty I love the ambiguity…I just wish for a more interesting book.
