This short story was very detailed and captivating. Even though I didn’t understand all the terms used in this Irish short story, I understood the main ideas of it. “The Dead’ is one of those longer short stories which, by the length of the story, intimidated me. However, as I began to read it, I started to connect to the protagonist, Gabriel Conroy. This connection was made by his human like psychological barriers, such as the questioning of his existence and the inability to connect to other people. This short story also touched upon on some interesting topics such as feminism and nationalism.
