Welcome to The Fast and the Fictitious. In each episode, students in English 2410, a Dual Enrollment Fiction course, will deep dive a story, highlight key takeaways, and relate the themes of the story to their lives.
In this episode, Ayla, Jena, and Sarah talk about “The Scarlet Ibis,” by James Hurst. All three were touched by the way Hurst infused emotion into the story as shown in the relationship of the main character and his special needs brother. They also talk sibling rivalry, delaying facing the things that make us uncomfortable, and set a modern day world record for the number of times the word ‘like’ is spoken aloud. We hope you enjoy.
