Entry 8 Option Three:

"If you had to recommend one of these two stories to a friend, which on would you choose? Explain your reason for recommending one work over the other." If I had to recommend one of the to two stories, them being "The Method", by Janet Fitch, and Morocco Junction 90210, by Patt Morrison, I would recommend story one. Story one for the shared reason that I loved the narrative, the story flowed smoothly, and clear. This was the first time reading a story written by a woman, and having a female narrative, the story was long enough to make clear sense. The Method  is a trilling story in associations of noir, depicting a side of Los Angeles. I would recommend this story over the other because the story starts of in a normal fashion, and little by little you start to see elements and styles of noir. It really gives a three-sixty view of whats exactly going on when reading the story. It has a smilier plot like in Sunset Blvd. talking about once famous people, and so-on, it shows language not expose in other noir by a woman, that I have seen. This was something new? This story had lust, revenge, ambiguity by the narrator that keep me reading. This had to be my favorite quote, "At about 11:00 the phone rang...It was Richard. I imagined how shocked he must be, hearing my voice, that son of a b****"(117). It was interesting to hear this female talk this way and in this tone throughout the story. The female in this case was seduction, into trying to kill, by a man, in opposite to classic film noir one example would be Double Indemnity the male is the ambiguous protagonist. Here [ The Method ] it's the other way around. The male pays with his life. This story is dark and Methodist. A good read.
