To Felicia

I was gripped when I read the title, “Seven Midget Strippers,” because it is one of those events I would not pass up if I was given the opportunity to go. I liked the main character’s name, Sean, because it reminded me a lot of one of my best friends, also named Sean. Everything that happened to Sean in the story would happen to my Sean in real-life because he has horrible luck. The Ikea reference was a nice touch because everyone has seen the generic, a ton of assembly required Ikea furniture. The comments about Dundalk made me laugh because I was born and raised in Essex so much of my life has been spent making fun of people from Dundalk, even though I’ve met some quite nice people who are unfortunately from Dundalk. My only negative comment about the piece is the lack of detail about the actual midget strippers. I would likes to have read more about them, especially because they’re what the piece is titled after.
