The Interlopers.

The Interlopers is a very mysterious story. To be honest this is Saki's first piece of writing I ever read, and I would say he is kind of a tricky author. I mean, The reader never expects that the interlopers are actually wolves. It is very hard to find out before you get to the ending. There might be some hidden clues that Saki gives, so the reader can find out, but to do it you would need to go like in an "analysis-mode" before you start reading and that would be exhausting and for sure, nobody will enjoy the story that much.
I like the mood Saki creates between Georg and Ulrich because the hatred between both of them is totally clear and you can feel it as reader. I am saying this because in my mind I imagined the a dark forest like at 6 or 7-ish time in the afternoon and the sky had this different tones of orange and red, so for me that colors were based on this hate I just mentioned.
This short story is pretty unpredictable and at the ending the author makes the reader wonder about what happened after he finds out the Interlopers were wolves. So it is totally a cliffhanger.
LOVED IT

Californian's Tale.

Ok, first of all let me tell you that I won't make a sumary out of the story cause I think we all know what it is about already. What I would like to write about is my point of view and kind of a short analysis which I just thought about some days ago. But anyways...
I think that Twain achieved what he wanted to when he wrote this story and he did it well. Twain did create that suspense in the reader (me) as I read the story. The structure he gave to the events makes the reader come up with a whole load of questions that makes him/her want to read more and more. But by this I mean, this kind of stories have a great strategy to catch the reader's attention without leaving him/her hanging on the edge of the seat. So I would say that it has kind of a relaxed mood, which, by the way, It is the kind of stuff I like to read when I really stressed, because it helps me to calm down.
Something that I did notice about Twain's main character, Henry, was that he was actually acting like his own wife, and he did believe that she would come back. By that we can tell that Henry's love was a never-ending feeling for her, so that makes the reader feel sorry for him, but when finally you reach the end you read about her being dead for 19 years, it is totally heart-breaking.
This is not the best story ever written but it is very nice and gives the reader a lot think about. So yeah, I did Like. ^w^

Literature....Art Through Paper and Ink.

Literature? A simple word, but a complez meaning. Literature is a form of art. Leiterature for me is the art of words. But what is art? Art is pure and exquisite beauti created by a human mind.
For me literature is more than an art, literature is like an emotion to me. Sometimes it turns into a safe place where I can hide for hours and hours and my imagination can go beyond reality, just like in a dream; and when that dream ends I can end up more than surprised by the wonderful things it does for me. Literature has actually turned into a kind of therapy for me, it has become a someone more than a something.
Literature is for sure, something that goes hand in hand with my passions. Or is it my passion? I wonder....
