Seeing The Beauty
After reading Seeing, I think that Dillard is definitely a nature writer. He explains things in nature so intricately and at ease. I think that Dillard believes people don't see nature as well as he does. We don't recognize the beauty like he does. Dillards writing is very descriptive and I can see how he has won awards from his pieces. To me, the actual story line lacks in this piece though. I couldn't decide on a thesis for Seeing, though his main concept seems to be explaining nature's beauty.

I couldn't agree more, I couldn't find a thesis either, whether I overlooked it or not is another story. I mean I truly am not sure if I grasped the whole idea of the story. I agree his writing is very descriptive!!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree. Dillard has such a connection with nature but to me the piece seemed so random and repetitive. I didn't like it and had a really hard time following it.
