One Writer's Beginnings

I am still in the Listening portion of Eudora Welty's One Writer's Beginnings and I realized what I am up against for the rest of the book.
As I am reading I realized that although Eudora is writing an essay type book, she is still a fiction writer and uses many details and other rhetorical language.
In all of the stories and experiences, thus far, Eudora not only tells you the main points of what happened, but she also tells you her thoughts and gives detail about the expressions and setting. This makes the sentences in the book longer, but still very simple and easy to read.
Eudora also uses many similies and metaphors as she writes also. She describes a certain event or object, but then adds a relation to give her writing more awe and spice.
This helps to keep the reader from getting bored. It also helps the reader to understand exactly what the object is or what was going on by relating it to something that is more common. The rhetorical devices also help us to realize that Eudora is a fiction writer and is very good at it.
So even though I am not far in the book, I found out alot about Eudora- her child hood, past, and writing styles. I am looking forward to reading more about Eudora's path leading up to her career and seeing if her style changes as the section changes or if it just gets more complex. I am also looking forward to reading more of Welty's engaging essay and "listen" to the voice of the passage.
