Where do you see the author’s experiences come through? What commentary/theme/message is she making about society? About culture? Compare this to the message of Guernica. Where do you see history told in Guernica?

Solid answers use at least three specific examples of actions, words or behaviors from the work to support their position and reply to at least one other student. Remember to start your post with a thesis statement/topic sentence that addresses the writing prompt.
