“Country Lovers” by Nadine Gordimer and “The Welcome Table” by Alice Walker‚ the theme being race / ethnicity. I want to explore the differences in how each of the black women portrayed their selves and how the narrator made me feel when reading each of the stories.

The Welcome Table Nadine Robinson Eng 125 – Introduction to Literature Instructor Mirranda Saake May 2‚ 2011 Electing the short story “The Welcome Story”‚ by Alice Walker (1970) for me was an easy choice for me to write a critiqued essay about.
