Group Work Story Selection

I'm glad we're writing on this rather than the story, I found it difficult to write about and didn't gather too much from the story. I'm anticipating what will be said tomorrow about the story and I look forward to the insight.

My group is presenting on June 23 and we have chosen Steinbeck's Chrysanthemums and will use Facebook as our media outlet. The setting will be exciting to convert into a modern day interpretation with all the flowers and rural ranch setting. The characters are relatively straightforward but with enough interaction and thoughts as material to work with. The descriptions of the setting as well as the characters is also essential to the success of our Chrysanthemums Facebook. Mostly, this story appealed to us more and was an easier and more delightful read than Bliss. Bliss did not stay focused and Chrysanthemums is a more relatable and tangible story. I like to imagine this house in the Salinas Valley, the little roadster car they ride off in, these huge beautiful flowers the wife to dedicatedly tends to, the interaction between the husband and wife, all will work well with our chosen medium and discussion questions readily formed.
