When I had read the short story on, “ The Hundredth Dove” I thought that the author was really detailed into writing it this short story, I noticed how since the story was based on the middle ages or days when people talked when kings and such were around. The words she used made you think you were there and yet I could picture everything from what I had read. I honestly don’t like when stories start out when it seems like it’s not a begging and how it seems to be the middle of the story. You know how stories start out with a indrouction, but some start out as if they were talking about in situation and once you read more you start to understand.
When I was towards the ending of the story it was a little confusing to me. The reason why is because how the doves could sing or talk, and I thought that when did this start to happen. I like how it made a little rhyme out of the singing bird, but the hole story seemed to be about how a hunter or such was getting 100 doves for the king and I never knew how in the end one got away or died. But yet I could image what was happening but yet the authors details were very just put out there, like as if you were there.
The one thing I would change about this story would be the ending, Why you might ask is because I would want to know what it be like in a few months or such to know how it changed the hunters life besides giving up hunting. I would like to know how it change him and the way he lives, same as the king. Did he ever have that wedding all because there weren’t 100 doves . but then again it was a short story.
The short story for some odd reason made me think of it as “ Shrek” that movie, because the hunter is on a little quest to get 100 doves for the king to have a wedding. Just in the movie it was like how Shrek went to go get the princess for the wedding. All because the middle ages made me think of that for an odd reason. But that’s how I relate to stories or such. I still think the story could use some more editing to it. If I could edit it I would. Overall I hope this makes you think about the story if you agree or disagree about the story.
