Which essay did you like best? Explain your choice.
"In the Trenches" by Charles Yale Harrison
"The Suitcase Lady" by Christie McLaren
"The 51-Per-Cent Minority" by Doris Anderson
In My opinion, In the Trenches was my favorite essay. This is because of the author's style, and the extreme detail the author used in explaining the character's view of the war. Every word coming out of the character's mouth is so filled with description that you can picture exactly what was going on. The imagery is amazing, and you truly feel like you are the one on the front line of the battlefield, living in his shoes. There are multiple literary devices used, which also adds to the quality of the essay. All of the metaphors used provide comparisons that paint pictures in your mind.
For these reasons, I think that this essay was the best one.
