Homework 4/17/08

"She Unnames Them"-
This story is about a women most likely Eve who unnames the animals and sets them free. I found it to be very confusing, especially when she was speaking to Adam. she refers to the ability to give or unname? is a gift to her. I'm not sure about the last sentence but it seems that she is preparing herself to talk to God. It sort of twists the whole story for me.


"Magi"-
The journey of the Magi is about the Magi's journey through the worst time of the year. "The very dead winter." The author writes about the hostility of the cities and dirty villages. These descriptions give the idea that the journey was not a pleasant one.


"A Cold Coming"- I found this story to be disturbing, it was just akward. From the title i thought it was going to be a response to the journey of Magi, because the first line of the Magi is "A cold coming we had of it."

I agree with you that She Unnames Them is confusing, I had no idea what she was talking about. This story just made me confused.
