The Colonel response

The flow of this story is very fast. It jumps from description to description, not saying this is a bad thing i just think it is very different from other short stories i have read. Most seem to take time going through every single detail where as this short story describes things very fast and vividly. For example " The maid brought green mangoues, salt, and a type of bread. I was asked how i enjoyed the country. There was a brief commerical in Spanish. His wife took everything away." It this short amount of time a lot of things take place i believe this very realistic and i feel the authour did a very good job of describing things in a short and sweet manner. Now that i am thinking about it, to me this is harder to do than spending minutes describing one specific detail.
