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.

About My Aunt

I love the usage of sensory imagery, I am hoping to get to that point in my writing. I love the vision the writer created as she was heading to Rikers Island to visit her boyfriend. The girl combing her hair, and the term "lipstick myself" was new to me, however I was able to pictured what the writer meant. Aunt Kiki sure was a risk taker. As a New Yorker I found it exciting to read about places I am familiar with.
I wish I knew more about Kiki's parents and siblings.
