Leaves The Reader Reader Finds
335 wordsThe Winner by Barbara Kimenye fails to attract and hold the interest of the reader and should not be used in the English 11 curriculum. Through its use of foreign terms, the story puts a barrier in front of the reader and closes the door to our understanding.
