The Found Boat

In this story the protaginist to me was Eva. The story beggins telling of her and Carol and ends with Eva and Carol. The action is when they get to work on the boat to fix it. The climax does not come until they start playing truth or dare because thats when they start going alittle crazy. They also tell of Frank, Bud and Clayton and it seems that Eva kind of likes Clayton. At the end however it is Clayton who makes Eva hate all three of them when he squirts water at Eva making Clayton, to me, the antagonist.

To be honest I have trouble understanding or getting the point of this story. It seemed to me that it did not have a meaning. I read it three times and after the third time the story was the same to me. The only thing that stood out to me the most was the humor that was put in the story.

  1. Read it more slowly, and be sure to highlight (or underline), and write comments in the margin. You'll be surprised at what you can find. Try to write an analysis that is a bit longer. Talk about more elements. Did you see any symbolism? Any imagery? What about the setting?
