"The storm" writtin in 3rd person is very confusing as it starts out talking about many differnt people. With out really decribing each persons charcter in the story. The dialog was hard to follow as it jumped around alot. Although the story did a really good job at discribion and painting a visualize picture of the charters looks. "she was a little fuller of figure than five years before when she married; her blue eyes still retained their melting quality and her yellow hair, dishvelled by the wind and rain." Very well understaning of how the charcter may look. There is also good describtion on what the storm was like and how bad it really was. "It shook the wooden storen and seemed to be ripping great furrowas in the distant field." Some where it stated they had not had a storm this bad in years. This is a story where the conflict is man verses nature. These images helped me visualize the storm, its as if you were there. The setting is sourthen and ancient by the describtion of them riding in on horses and the dialog used. The story overal intesting and ending very classic like many others "happy every after." In happiness as the storm has passed.
