After
reviewing the document “The Elements of Fiction,” and the short stories
for this week, write a brief character analysis of Mrs. Mallard, Leona
May Moses, and Mrs.
Luella Bates Washington Jones. What are some of their personality
traits? How do you think they would react if they won a large sum of
money in the lottery, and what are your reasons?

Use textual
evidence to support your response. This means, quote lines or passages
from the stories that support your response. Just put quotation marks
around the quoted material and put the page number in parentheses. Put
the period at the end. For example, if you wanted to quote from “Thank
you, M’am,” it would look like this:

“The woman still had him by the neck, in the middle of her room” (28).

If
you are quoting something that already has a quotation in it, do it
like this. (Put the quoted lines in single quotation marks.)

“She said, ‘What is your name?'” (28).
