Question

The person with whom you find yourself identifying in a story sometimes depends on your own identity. With whom did you identify at the start of staples essay and how did it affect your reading of the full piece?

Answer 1

As a woman, identifying with the story´s protagonist based on the first paragraph was complex. The beginning ('My first victim was a woman') made me feel like he was dangerous for those of my gender.

Step-by-step explanation:

However, realizing that the 'victim' was actually a white woman discriminating against him for his race, something I have experienced personally because of my Latinamerican heritage, allowed me to identify myself with the protagonist, and therefore, I felt so much more immersed in his story.
