Ultimately, which of these two pieces of writing do you find more effective in communicating the narrator’s thoughts to the audience? Explain why you prefer one work over the other.

I'd have to read the two pieces of writing first. To answer this question, though, you could read both pieces of writing again and try to find the main idea/theme of each. Then, see how much more quickly you could find the main idea over the other. You could explain why it was easier to find a main idea in one besides the other. Hope you find the answer!
