ESSAY ON: Eudora Welty's "A Memory"

Number of Pages 3

This research paper: 3 pages in length. Everyone harbors fond memories of the past and at one time or another and dissolves into those delicious recollections without cause or concern for the present. The extent to which the adult narrator of Welty's A Memory reverts so ardently to a particular childhood memory involving a boy, a crush and the beach – only to be angered by a group of bathers who inadvertently snap her out of her dream-like state – illustrates how people can all too easily be cast away from the present and attempt to live in the past as a way to absolve themselves of personal conflict. No bibliography.
