Blog 8

            The poem "Cinderella" by Anne Sexton is a good version of the actual story which come from a very simple point of view. It derives from a kid friendly story but the author gave a complete new twist on this. She added a lot of more graphic details like "cutting off the heel" which wouldn't be a part of any children's book in these days. I like how even though she criticizes the original story, her version of it allowed readers to view it from a different perspective. I would recommend it to someone because it's nothing like the original story and will give the reader something to think about.
