We used the Steller storytelling program to show how quotes from the three stories we have read this week and their matching pictures can portray one of the common themes of the stories. The theme I chose is escape. The quote I used for "Paul's Story" shows that he had to take extreme measures and commit suicide in order for him to be able to escape society and be at peace. My quote from "The Chrysanthemums" describes how happy Elisa becomes when somebody finally recognizes and respects her work with her flowers and sees her not as like a man. She escapes the way her husband thinks of her when the tinker compliments her work. The quote from "Barn Burning" portrays how Sarty escapes his problems with his dad. He runs away to De Spain's house to tell him that his father is planning on burning down the barn. Sarty's father is caught and killed because of Sarty, which means Sarty has finally escaped the abuse from his father.
