Comparison: A writer usually attempts to create a bond of trust between writer and reader. How and to what extent have at least two writers you have studied been able to elicit your trust?
For "Blood Wedding," the writer elicited my trust through the character of "mother." She is so worried about her son because she already lost her husband and her other son. She doesn't want to lose her last son to a marriage to a girl she doesn't even know. She has her suspicions. I can understand how mother would be worried and that made me begin to wonder if her son's choice was a good one or not. I can relate to mother's worries, so I trust her.
For "Wild Duck," the writer elicits my trust by the character of Hedvig. She is a nice girl who really loves her dad and is always excited to see him. She gets so excited to see her dad - I can relate to it because I remember how excited I was to see my dad when I was young. She wants to do her best to please her dad, she loves him so much. The reader trusts her because of her innocence.
