black Buick gets out of the car and starts running after them, “Its wide black door opened; a man got out of it, running. He didn’t even close the car door.” The same thing happens to Rodriguez after being caught on school grounds after hours, “It never stopped, this running. We were constant prey, and the hunters soon became big blurs: the police, the gangs, the junkies….”. Dillard was not amused by the ending to the marathon of her life, “If in that snowy backyard the driver of the black Buick…

“I need to talk to you” my mother said. “Why? Am I in trouble?” I replied. “No”, my mother answered with tears in her eyes, “there’s something you need to know about your dad.” It was cold. Another ordinary evening after school, at least that’s what I thought. I was 9 years old at the time. I came home prepared to go over homework with my mom and siblings. We would probably have one of my mother’s healthy dinners. Instead, I was greeted with Cherry Cheesecake, and my siblings were nowhere to be…

In 1958, Dwight D. Eisenhower was president. We were in the middle of the Vietnam War. We still only had one type of television. It was the box T.V. Our radio system was a little box radio with a long antenna. Fashion for ladies in 1958 was big poofy dresses and curled up hair. Red lipstick and thick eyeliner. Men would wear dress pants. Dress shirts under their buttoned up coats and bow ties. Always dress shoes, never anything else. Fedoras as well. In 1958 they launched spacecrafts into space.…

The first Dodge was built in 1914. The new car was an instant seller. When the three Dodge brothers died in 1920 they hired 22,000 workers and produced 140,000 cars a year.

We ended up taking my friend Nicks old Buick La Saber, it was on old beat up four door car but, we decided that it was probably the best choice since my car was a two door car and it was way too small for four people on that long of a road trip. We quickly learned that taking the Buick was a huge mistake. As we were driving the car would get close to overheating and we had to stop several times to let the engine…

International Airport, Shanghai, China, we were exhausted from the tedious 14-hour flight; all my family wanted was sustenance and sleep. Arriving to our new, empty apartment, we sadly found neither. All eight of us loaded back into the little, grey Buick minivan so we could go shopping at the Carrefour (a four story French version of Walmart) just two miles away. The drive itself was a new experience with LED lights flashing throughout the city. Shopping in…

The narration of the chase only lasts six paragraphs, though it seems longer, almost as if in real time. To recreate the breathlesness of the chase, Dillard explains what is happening, describes, in vivid detail, her surroundings, and delves into her own thoughts. Dillard also, intentionally leaves out time markers to draw attenion from the duration of the chase to the sheer excitement of it. In paragraph ten, when the chase starts, Dillard states that the man starts chasing them and they run…
