A NARRATOR’S
POINT OF VIEW
Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again. It
seemed to me I stood by the iron gate leading to the drive, and for a
while I could not enter, for the way was barred to me. There was a padlock
and a chain upon the gate. I called in my dream to the lodge-keeper, and
had no answer, and peering closer through the rusted spokes of the gate I
saw that the lodge was uninhabited. No smoke came from the chimney,
and the little lattice windows gaped forlorn. Then, like all dreamers, I
was possessed of a sudden with supernatural powers and passed like a
spirit through the barrier before me.
WORK FOR WEEK 5
Begin (or continue) a
story, poet, etc, by using the idea of the narrator/speaker remembering.
Make this the way they tell the story.
It could be a simple recall of something, or part of a memoir, or it
could be a confession of some kind, or the person could be struggling to
remember something that just escapes them.
