Seeing as the dead man was random and came about quickly after Myop's: "heel had become lodged," (Walker, 1) in the Man's broken area between his brow and nose.]]> 2017-09-20 18:15:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189478452 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189478645 In the short story "The Flowers" by Alice Walker, she left a lot of details out for the reader to infer. Walker did this because she wanted the reader to develop a bigger picture on the vague story line she provided. An example of this is when Walker describes the corpse Myop found in the woods. She is very descriptive of how he looks, but doesn't involve any details of what happened to him. Walker provided the reader with very little detail, so that the reader could think more and infer what actually happened to the man.]]> 2017-09-20 18:16:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189478645 tgoodlet0445 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189478878 I think Walker left so much up to the reader to infer because it would add more to the imagery of the short story the reason for this when myop walks up on the dead body walker describes the body in detail for the reader to imagine.

For example in paragraph 8 it says " Myop laid her flowers". Walker put this because it meant something and she used keywords that would make the reader think. ]]> 2017-09-20 18:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189478970 bbrisini4568 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479427 Alice walker the author left so much key details out of her story because she wanted to make the reader realize what happened based on the time that it takes place. She gives so much details on where Myop is from and where her family lives. The author made Myop not notice the body and when she found the body the author did not go into a lot of deatail about the body and what had happen beside the teeth being broken and the noose on the ground.]]> 2017-09-20 18:17:28 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479427 lbradley6708 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479477 Alice Walker gives the reader a chance of creativity and mystery leaving multiple cliff hangers. The reason it is is to exfoliate the emphasis of a short story and why they are made. I believe that she used Myop as a minimal example to make a inference in her perspective as she was clueless to the world around here.]]> 2017-09-20 18:17:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479477 zosteen9855 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479563 i think the author left so much up to the reader because they want you to have to think about the story and makes u curious on the events that they didn't mention in the story. Myop didnt say much about the scene she just said some things but left a'lot of information out.]]> 2017-09-20 18:17:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479563 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479591 I believe that Alice left so much out of the story because she wanted the people reading to use what they already know about that time period. Like when Myop stepped smacked into the man's eye so Alice wants the readers to infer what had happened to the man or the sharecropper cabin is what freed slaves lived in and paid by the crops they grew. These two details might be reasons why Alice left out a lot of information and made the readers infer more than most authors might have.]]> 2017-09-20 18:17:47 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479591 hnorth5353 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479720 I believe the author left out a bunch of key things because she wanted the reader to feel like they were in Myop's shoes ,a
lso to represent  mystery in some sort of way.  Some evidence to represent my claims are the way she explained the man's dead body but not really stated what exactly happened because obviously Myop really didn't know what exactly happened. Like the author explains Myop going there and seeing the dead body and not truly examining it just kind of looking at it in fear. The author also makes us feel like we are in Myop's shoes by using imagery like " pushed back the leaves and layers of earth and debris. My evidence represents my claim because it i believe it truly and deeply explained why i think the author wrote this story the way she did]]> 2017-09-20 18:18:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479720 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479769 Alice Walker left so much unsaid because she wanted the reader to think about what they like happened and what really happened , and I think  she wanted the reader to be curious. An example if this is describes the man, because she doesn't tell you how he died or when he died,because she wanted you to decide.]]> 2017-09-20 18:18:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479769 agraham9662 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479818 Alice Walker from the short story "The Flowers" is leaving the reader curious because she wants the reader to decide weather the mean is dead or not as evidence from the text is says, " It was when she stepped smack into his eyes". By that text she is not giving us any evidence of how he looked even if it wasn't bones. She is showing extreme imagery for the reader. ]]> 2017-09-20 18:18:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189479818 abanner4353 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189480322 I believe that the reason the Walker left so much for the mind to decide what happened and how to solve what happened  and let the reader be very creative about what happened and if you didnt know what time period it was in then you wouldn't know what probably happened to the man who was brutally murdered. ]]> 2017-09-20 18:19:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189480322 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189480694 I believe that Alice Walker wants us the readers to think about what she wrote and not to just to get everything from the story she has given us.]]> 2017-09-20 18:19:45 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189480694 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189485493 Its amazing]]> 2017-09-20 18:28:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189485493 jploch0496 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189491002 2017-09-20 18:38:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/189491002 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/1354122181 2021-03-25 17:28:01 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/1354122181 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/1771325034 2021-09-27 14:24:56 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/1771325034 https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/1771326775 2021-09-27 14:25:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kdclark/f2rxqltnfndq/wish/1771326775
