In a critical essay, a writer analyzes, interprets, or evaluates a particular text. It is especially appropriate for in an analysis of a text’s structure—the framework that holds a story together.
It would not be inaccurate to describe the structure of Matt Young’s Eat the Apple as “unconventional.” The compelling narratives of Young’s military service in the Middle East are conveyed through a variety of literary techniques, including illustrations, differing POVS, letters, scripts, lists, mock interviews, and vignettes.
It is an unusual approach for the average memoir, but is it effective? How does the structure of Eat the Apple affect the reader’s understanding of Matt Young story? Is a reader’s understanding enhanced by it? Or can the structure get in the way?
