The Wedding Criticism - 0 views

felicia Baron on 13 Jan 12Argument: An essay by Zaleski, summarizing the plot of "The Wedding" by Nicholas Sparks, and providing opinion on the likability of the text. Evidence: For the most part this paragraph summarizes the plot of "The Wedding", however the last few sentences express the authors opinion on how Sparks writes in a romantic, yet not too mushy type of way through use of his diction and plot twists. Claims: "Sparks tells his sweet story competently, without sinking too deeply into the mire of sentiment; a gasp-inducing twist comes at the very end. Satisfied female readers will close the covers with a sigh and a wish that a little of the earnest, too-good-to-be-true Wilson might rub off on their own bedmates" Though I would not include the whole quote, there is valuable substance within this quote that speaks of how SParks writes and develops a story, and audience reactions to his writing, plus this article is specifically relevant to "The Wedding" which is a text I read for the project.
