When you hear that word a few things may instantly pop up in your head. You may very well think of supermodels that strut around on a runway in expensive name brand outfits. Or you could think of movies like Confessions of a Shopaholic, and The Devil Wears Prada. But what you most likely don't think of is an art, a passion, or a lifestyle. Fashion…

In Meagan Ciesla’s Darlin Sue, she uses first person narration to tell the story of a woman and her failing relationships with her neighbor and her husband. The use of the this limited perspective leaves a lot of important connecting ideas in the dark to the reader. So this short story utilizes a first person point of view that is…
