“Fat” by Raymond Carver is the first short story in a collection called Will You Please Be Quiet, Please. Carver intrigued me because of his unique style of writing and captivated me from the first short story I read. This short story is a conversation between the narrator and her friend Rita, as she serves a fat man in the diner where they both work. The story, whilst seemingly is a ‘slice of life’ everyday mundane observation, slowly becomes more uncomfortable and unsettles dark secrets that…

Walter Elias Disney was often described as “The great American motion-picture and television producer and showman, famous as a pioneer of cartoon films and as the creator of Disneyland” (Walt Disney Biography). Disney was very successful in his life time and still is to this day cherished and looked up to by so many young kids and adults alike. Walt has been my top motivation for quite a while, not only because he is one of the most successful animators in history, but because no matter what…

He called it the, “Disney Magic”. Walt Disney was on of Catmull’s boyhood idols. The other idol that he had as a child was Albert Einstein. He explained, in his autobiography, the reason he probably looked up to these two men. He felt that they both represented creativity, just in different ways. Disney…

“Cathedral” is a story about a man’s changing views, based on a growing and learning experience that he faces throughout the story. The man’s speech on his wife about her initial contact with the blind man begins passively: her job to work for the man is simply a job, nothing more.

Looking But Not Seeing. Appreciably, blindness is a dominant theme woven through the garment of the “Cathedral” story by Raymond Carver. One is taken aback by the utter rawness and cold attitude exhibited by the narrator about the blind man. The narrator loudly wonders on who could dare attend a little wedding between Robert, the blind man and his sweetheart Beulah and further states that he does not have any blind person as a friend. As the story develops, one thing becomes certain that the…
