In the short story "Killings" by Andre Dubus, what is the overall significance of the order in which the events of the story unfold? Think about how the story might have been different had the events occurred in strict chronological order. Would you have reacted differently to the ending if the story had been told in this way?
Please respond to the question(s) in a post on your own blog before the next class. Make sure to follow the requirements outlined in the syllabus.
Yes, the story would of been completly different in my opinion if the story did not start in medias res. The author in my opinion told the story this way to keep his readers on their toes. The story would of had a different effect on me if the story was told in chronological order.
