Narration in College Writing 35
MAYAANGELOU Finishing School 37
“Negro girls in small Southern towns, whether poverty-stricken or just
munching along on a few of life’s necessities, were given as extensive
and irrelevant preparation for adulthood as rich white girls shown in
magazines. Admittedly the training was not the same.”

GEORGE ORWELL A Hanging 45

“The hangman climbed down and stood ready, holding the lever.
Minutes seemed to pass. The steady, muffled crying from the prisoner
went on and ori, . . . ri^er faltering for an instant.”

RICHARD SELZER The Masked Marvel’s Last Toehold 53

“One after the other, a pair of wrestlers enter the ring. The two men

The Masked Marvel’ ”

ART HARRIS Trapped in Another Life 61

working mother, so perfect that no one around her can believe she

Herman, who was on full blast. The protesters were singing a hymn
when my name was called. I walked down a short hallway in my
bare feet . . . .”

thing. I guess I remembered clearest of all the early mornings, when
the lake was cool and motionless . . . .”

GEORGE SIMPSON The War Room at Bellevue 117

“Bellevue. The name conjures up images of an indoor war zone: the

harried doctors in blood-stained smocks rush from stretcher to
stretcher fighting a losing battle against exhaustion and the crushing
number of injured.”

PETER SCHJEEDAHL Cyclone! Rising to the Fall 126

“The Cyclone is art, sex, God, the greatest. It is the most fun you

‘Conquer or die.’ ”

ROBERT W. KEIDEL A New Game for Managers to Play 268

“. . . the metaphors we use routinely are the means by which we
structure experience. Thus, football metaphors may well reflect—and
