Hello readers,
I chose to do the Feminist lens because it took an interesting perspective to a book that was about child abuse, regarding a female child. I believe that the author's intentions for writing this book would have been somewhat influenced by their views on women and gender roles. Keeping in mind, that the interactions in this book are typically an older male and a young girl, we can ask ourselves : Would the situation be different if the interaction was between an older female and a young boy? Considering the roles of females at the time this book was made or even now that people are reading, is an important element in interpreting the text. In addition, since the entire text is through the perspective of a male, it would be interesting to see how this character and how the author writes this male's view on female roles. Overall, I am excited to read the book and see what feminist take I can approach as I go and analyze each portion of the text.
