"Chapter 1 - Dead" Metacognitive Response
Literally dead? or just dead to someone else? If fifty years has passed wouldn't they most likely be dead literally? What is the interview for? Watching Dallas do what? Who is the narrator referring to about if her father saw "you"? What's her new name after getting rid of Rachel? What's kaddish and shiva? Did the family really never say I love you to each other? Were these people rich? By her saying that her father's pants were "glazed and shined and were ripe enough through to stand on their own," was she saying that he never washed his pants?
Final Response: I had a lot of questions about this chapter and didn't receive a lot of answers due to how short it was. I don't exactly prefer the metacognitive response so in the next one, I will be using the other form of response.
This chapter did raise a lot of questions without answering many. I can answer one of your questions: when she says she wants to watch Dallas she is referring to an old TV show.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the TV show clarification, haha. But yeah, this chapter was too brief for anyone to really get any answers.
