Unfinished j

Murphy's writing is much different than most of what we've read this semester. We discussed in depth what it means to "make sense"; for the most part, Murphy brings her writing a lot closer to our preconceived, traditional, notions of what makes sense. I cannot say that all of it is comprehensible, but at least some of it is, which contrasts greatly with the works of Stein and the majority of other writers that we've read about thus far. At least the theings she writes are in full sentences with a subject and verb along with colorful and eloquent language that makes it more interesting. It is a good change from most of what we've read where we would be lucky to find even a simple structured sentence within a jumble of words.
