  2. I've just finished 'How about this'
    As I haven't started the other one, I have no clue what to write about but I felt a litte bit of Emily and Harry breaking up(?) at the end as the writer has finished the story with a lot of possobilities.
    I accessed here to get some ideas what other people thinks but I 'm ggoing back with nothing T^T
    I'm going to find out the similarities with 'The Storm' from now on..
    I wish I could.. kk

  3. I can hardly understand "The Storm"
    I can not imagine the situation while reading it.
    Can Jerry or anybody give me some explanation?
    Is the man Rupert in the conversation at the beggining of the story?
    And is this only happened high up in a Villa ?
    The man and woman and Rupert and his wife.. these people and a lot of rooms are making me confused. T^T
    HELP .

  4. Rupert and God are not the same person. I think one of the interesting things in the story is that Rupert and his wife think about God in different ways. She thinks of God as an "outlaw," a kind of criminal (p. 181) and he thinks of God as a kind of travel agent (p. 184).

    The drama in "The Storm" is about these two people, this married couple, right? At the beginning of the story they are fighting, then they are separated, and then they come together again. But are they really happy together? Or do the just think they are happy? Are they right or wrong in how they think about each other? And so on... Hope this helps.
