Welcome to the blog for Prof. John Talbird's English 221 class. The purpose of this site is two-fold: 1) to continue the conversations we start in class (or to start conversations BEFORE we get to class) and 2) to practice our writing/reading on a weekly basis in an informal forum.

"HOW TO DISASSEMBLE YOUR FATHER'S GHOST(WINTER) it seems like the character in

story manifested his father from within his mind. The father is telling the character to forget him and

live his life I'm getting this vibe. Example of this are when his so called father's ghost appears "

takes his pocketknife out, sits down to tells his son to cut the apparitions of his ears. Maybe it could

be the father witnessing his own future murder by the character. Example of this is the sentence" his

heart will be easily retrieved from the cloud chest. it must be fed to the dog. Wake the dog and feed it

heartily''. The dog could mean a way to get rid of the body by having the dog eat the body parts. My

question is this a confession or son trying to forget his father.
