The Cathedral

Raymond Carver's writing style is very interesting. I actually found it to be very annoying. The sentences were very short and like Molly said, sparse. It felt very unnecessary at times. When I read I like to take it in and imagine every scene. Although he made the story very detailed, the stunted writing distracted me. I was more focused on correcting his writing style, then actually understanding what he was trying to portray. Overall the plot was interesting, but his writing definitely turned me off from reading anymore of his pieces.
