Hi Teannie, 

I really enjoyed reading your blog post regarding Patrick Whites text, ‘Down at the Dump’ and how it relates to his essay ‘The Prodigal Son’. 

I thought the quotes you incorporated were very relevant and conveyed your points very well. I liked how you showed the contrast in societies beliefs through your quotes. It was interesting to see how they viewed intellectualism and how White delved deeper into understanding their views.

I liked the connections you made between both texts in regards to what true message White was trying to express, whether it was the materialistic Australian culture or ‘social class barriers’. You really delved into both texts and found a great way to write about Whites message. 

Your writing is also very good and engaging and so is the layout of your blog entry. Overall, it was a delight to read. Great Job!
