Topic > Analysis of Speech Sounds by William Butler - 962

Dear Butler, after reading your story “Speech Sounds”, it made a positive and fantastic impression on me, inexplicable and reminiscent of events from my childhood. I was really impressed with how you wanted to show the reader that language is important to a culture and without human communication and language the breakdown of social structure will affect people's lives. Throughout the story I see that Rye is a woman who has the ability to talk between other people who are unable to communicate with each other due to the disease called “pandemic”. And she was the only woman who had the ability to speak among others who could not, as a way to emphasize the presence of a dominant woman in society. The most powerful and significant part of your story that I was most interested in is that when Rye realizes that the two children are able to speak he decides to abandon them and teach them. Rye may not have had the power to speak in public, among the people, but he had the power to protect children from the violations of that society. Even though the story was full of descriptions of difficult moments in people's lives, it was written with such an emotional feeling that it made me cry at the end of the story. It made me cry for a long time with my ten children, although my grandparents had many difficulties in raising and nurturing their children, but they had aspirations to build a great future and choose a career for them. As time passed, children grew up in a large family, sometimes with some deficits, difficulties and even with some depression as they went through difficult times. Overcoming obstacles in the lives of each child in his family was a major destination for his future. As my mother often remembers, my grandfather said: “When there is a specific goal, the effort to achieve it becomes fun”
