Topic: “Someone Ought to Tell Her There’s Nowhere to Go” and “The King of a Vast Empire”
Details: In the first three stories in the book, Danielle Evans examines the world through a female lens. This will recur in many of the later stories and is generally recognized as one of her strengths.
In “Someone Ought to Tell Her There’s Nowhere to Go” and “The King of a Vast Empire” we are given male protagonists. In this assignment, I want you to tell me what you think she is trying to convey to us in these stories. What do these two young men symbolize? Are there common threads in these stories (what is shared, what is different)? As a female writer, is she able to capture the essence of these characters? What things does she want us to think about our world, and about men and their role in our world, after reading these tales
