I
really liked the way that Lindsley uses contrasting images and ideas in this
story. When Alex gets shot with the dart she craves french fries
thinking, "I hate those french fries, so
golden and crispy on the outside, so moist and fluffy on the inside." Then later in the story, during the job
interview, she has conflicting thoughts once again, laughing at the
interviewer's jokes while inside she is infuriated. This dualality continues as Alex is revealed
as a rebel and yet at the same time is dating Tom and feels some attachment
towards him. I think it really adds to
the story.
