"Killings" by Andre DuBus. 1991.
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) One of the current social" buzz words" is
community. It is spoken of with almost the
reverence of a saint being pierced with a sword.
Somehow in this new century, the idea of a group of
people, in a given geographic area caring for each
other is perceived as an amazing concept. Andre
Dubus sets his 1991 short story "Killings,"
in such a community, but Dubus is not a writer of
surfaces, his words dig mine shafts into the
human experience, and dare to come to the surface
with the glint of treasure.

"Lost in the Funhouse": A Discussion of the Book by John Barth
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page review of the work of John Barth, one of the most notable fiction writers of the twentieth century. Discusses the societal need to classify and categorize such works. "Lost in the Funhouse" is a collection of short stories, essays, meditations, and jokes which stands in contrast to most contemporary approaches to the short story. Fervently resisting the century's move toward realism, Barth instead prefers to combine the past with the present into an "eclectic montage", an intertextual experience which provides something for everyone. The result is a work in which the old story is retold with a postmodern twist. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
