In the Shadow of War

I am so happy, that we are not reading more poetry, however this story I find it cool, weird and intresting. And I like how the theme of the war became part of the history, with the 3 soldiers that arrived on the firts day (in afternoon) and also the woman of the history cause me many douts about what she does and where she goes. And finally I must say I found it intresting and I liked the name of "Omovo" because it is unsual, and it shows creativity.

Dover Beach

I found it intresting not only because it was written in the Victorian Period, but mostly because besides the awful situation they were living and that he actually reflects on the poem, at the end he concludes that there is nothing like the love between he and his couple, so this means that love survives and is present even the darkeness times, so I really like this idea. Because it is amazing that he actually thinks in that with all the situation that was happening. However I still prefer not to read poetry, because it is hard to me to understand it. I hope we read something else, and I hope it is not poetry.

The Lady of Shalott

The first time I read it, I didn't like it but mostly it was because I actually didnt't understand it, so when we read it together as a class I reallize it is a great poem, with a lot of symbolism and I like the idea of reality and destiny, because that make me think if our future is already planned or we change it day by day? So anyway, it was intresting to see how does she breaks the rules stablished by the curse. And I hope we read something else than poems, because even they are intresting I don't like them and it is so hard to me to understand them.
