INTRODUCTION

 

 

What I am analyzing are the actions that take place in the short story; the time.

After writing down the notes I thought were important, I have decided to divide them into the following categories.

 

Þ    Personal time

 

Þ    Social time

 

Þ    Particles of time

 

 

In each point I have added all the examples I have found in the whole hypertext.

 

 

Now, I am going to give you a little summary of the story:

 

It talks about a young couple who are in love.

The whole story is set in a fun fair called ‘People’s Fair’ in Denver during an afternoon.

 

First of all, they are in her house and he asks her to marry him. But she wasn’t sure about it.

 

After that, they both went to the fun fair mentioned above and there, they saw a Ferris Wheel and they decided to join the queue to go on.

 

The girl tells us everything about her feelings, their conversations and what they do… minute by minute.

They also observe their surroundings, and a couple of times she remembers a few occasions from when she was a child, the advice given by her father and moments with her boyfriend…

 

On the last page if our hypertext, which is on page 17, she accepts his boyfriend’s proposal and says words:  “Yes, I say. Let's get married. Let's be a part of each other forever.”
