Sheila, The Bass, The River, and Sheila Mant


In the the book "The Bass, The River, and Sheila Mant," the narrator faces both external and internal conflicts. His external conflict is mainly to get Sheila to agree to go on a date with him. He finally resolved that problem by sweet-talking her into it. The narrator has a few internal conflicts, but his main one is his stupid decision of letting a fish go just to fit in with his date and her expectations. He solved this conflict partially by letting go of his crush on Sheila. The only problem that wasn't resolved was the fact that he'll never catch a fish so big as the one he let loose. Though it sound like everything is settled and calm the author puts a twist on the ending explaining how he will never forget the stupid decision he made.

  1. Joseph, proofread your work before posting it! The story we read was "The Bass, the River, and Shelia Mant." By the way, when we don't know the narrator's name, we address him/her by "narrator," not by the author's first name. Remember the author isn't always the narrator.
    Please see me.
