Reading Response

     Out of the three stories that I read, "The Minister's Black Veil" seemed the most promising. Obviously, the veil is a metaphor for the "veil" that everyone wears when talking to everyone else. I think that I can find something a bit more introspective than that. It would warrant a careful read through, but I think that I can draw the theme that people's curiosity both terrifies and excites them. 
     "Sucker"can also make a good literary analysis. I think that I can find a deeper meaning to the story, particularly in the way that the main character is the antagonist. I can also put in a theme about watching what you say. It won't be extraordinarily difficult to pull a few themes. 
     The hardest of the three will be "The Sniper". To put it bluntly, I'm much too dull to understand the deeper meaning within the story. I would rather spend my time trying to connect the elements and theme instead of gleaning the story for some sort of understanding.
