Question

In two or three paragraphs, analyze the structure of The Way to Rainy Mountain and show how the structure affects the impact of that book. How did the same structure affect your project's impact?

Answer 1

In Navarre Scott Momaday's The Way to Rainy Mountain, he attempts to reconnect with his American Indian (Kiowa) history by traveling to Rainy Mountain, Oklahoma, to visit his late grandmother's grave. Momaday is a professor of English at the University of Arizona and holds degrees from both the University of New Mexico and Stanford University.

Despite the fact that Momaday is a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, critic, and academician, this critic believes that his flow of writing has disappointed the reader and that he has possibly lost his ability to connect with his readers because he fails to describe his feelings in detail, especially in nostalgic writing.
